Comment on No good excuse to still be on Xitter
makyo@lemmy.world 2 days agoI’ve read that it used to be a great place for really niche stuff. BUT your point still stands because I’m really not sure why that would be. Maybe the interface or something lent itself to that well or maybe it just hit the right moment and took off.

I think it’s because of the advertising system. Once you stumble onto one of them, you get the “content makers” retweeting eachother. It doesn’t cost them a dime to retweet someone else’s post, and if you retweet, you’re gonna get retweeted.
I’m still convinced there are some women I know that have/had an only fans (because of sudden changes to living quality without job promotions or other new sources of income). But this system also benefits them, if it is niche stuff like feet for instance, you’ll never find them, and you’ll never know it if you did. If it’s “normal stuff” (good luck getting me to define that, I have no fucking clue anymore) most “content makers” hide their identities pretty well, and I’d bet money that there are unspoken agreements between them to assist in keeping it that way.

Heh. You think feet are niche.
Drag is waiting for the day Lemmy users learn about dolls. It’ll blow their minds.
