@adi That's _our_ business model for Twt.social too ๐ We just need to build out the "payment" side of the platform. Right now it's just in "invite-only beta".

Yeah, I understood that, that's why I wrote that. You "just need" to also acquire customers and sell. ๐ What's your target, technical people?

@adi Nope, anyone and everyone. Anyone that wants to form a small community and get off the large-tech-gian social media platforms that collect and abuse your digital data. That's our target market, as to how small or large it is, I have no idea, but given today's climate of traditional "social media" this trend _might_ grow ๐

@prologic It's not easy to sell, especially to anyone and everyone.

@adi Hmm you have a good point, I _think_ my next door neighbor said something similar, something about "target market".

Question: Would you pay $1.99 USD/month for a Pod? Let's assume you have a small community of friends, colleagues, family and extended family you encouraged to get off "traditional social media" on to your own pod...

It's a reasonable price, but you got that right, people only recently started becoming "privacy aware", wouldn't be the first time I recommended people to switch to to "better" tech, but I personally, would probably host my own pod for nothing except the hosting costs.

@adi Thatโs totally fine ! In fact thatโs encouraged. in an ideal world I have the next few years I would love to see 10,000 pods where Amir 10%-20% of them are hosted by us and the rest I hosted individually by following us on their own infra. Today we have 8 we host and there are 2 we donโt ๐

@birb The problem is itโs a totally different design and a completely different protocol. I donโt actually think adding activitypub and making to annexed basically yet another fediverse node would actually add any value in my opinion

@adi yeah the other big worry that I have is if we toyed with the idea of opening up the floodgates into the FediVerss via ActicityPub it could either really hurt technically due to scale or socially due to human social problems. The design and vision I have in mind in the long run is for there to be many pods with small communities of users friends colleagues family etc.

@adi @prologic One reservation about using it with a small community would be the expectation that the discussions at some level stay within the circle as opposed to the internet at large.
