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!

@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 ๐Ÿ˜‚
