We need the big media companies to leave twitter - it seems almost every business and public figure that people actually want to follow has a Twitter account. This is especially true for media talents and talent agencies like hololive, and the YouTube/streaming space as a whole.
Once they finally realise that it makes sense to create a mastodon account it might actually push another wave over to mastodon.
I wouldn be surprised if talent agencies like vshojo and hololive eventually created their own mastodon or lemmy instances for their talents to have an account and community on - it seems the best way to validate and verify real vs fake talents. As well as moderate to their own standard.
People will be able to ask Is it @user@talent.agency? Yes it is, therefore they must be the real one.
Damn, that's a really smart idea, and I can definitely see big companies doing this.
