If you’e been wondering how to monetize your fediverse posting … https://sub.club has good news for you!

"If you post quality content and you’ve developed a loyal audience, you should be able to ask your most passionate followers to support you with a premium subscription.

That’s a promise not available on the Fediverse …until now."

@dimillian has a short threa announcing availabiilty in @IceCubesApp and sub.club advisor @quillmatiq has more info here.

sub.club’s a project of The BLVD, Inc, the makers of @mammoth. I know there was a lot of skepticism when Marc Benioff, Mozilla, Long Ventures et al, funded Mammoth … with so many good apps out there, how are they expecting to get VC-level returns on their investment? But if sub.club can tap into the creator economy, there’s clearly money to be made!

      I don’t see what’s wrong with it tbh… It’s what’s Substack has been doing all along… also it clearly says “if you make quality content”… which makes sense…

    Is there a way to just blanket block all mastodon users from a Lemmy account? I swear I’ve never seen one that wasn’t just vapid self promotion and hashtag spam.

        I suspect a lot of people on here don’t like the idea of monetizing Lemmy since that kind of defeats the whole purpose of Lemmy. It sounds more like something people would do on Reddit or Instagram

          @MrJameGumb yeah I thought @Diplomjodler3 nailed it with “monetize my ass”. Then again people have been trying to commercialize the fediverse even before the term got invented – StatusNet got initial venture funding back in 2009 or so back when it was still the identifverse. So it’s a long-standing tension in fedi as a whole.

          Mostly though I’m just entertained that people think that it’s self-promotion on my part 😂

        Only thing is to block users like the one I’m replying too. Then you can’t see their ads and hashtag junk and get back to normal discussions.
