There are a lot of small businesses who rely on Twitter. Reach is part of the equation. I can interact a ton with @staffandbranch.bsky.social (and do). I don’t have income that lets me buy a box. So there’s value in the interactions, but that doesn’t pay his bills.

I hope I am not coming across as complaining. Interacting with people like yourself is what makes social media enjoyable and not simply my job. Plus it helps a lot when people repost and interact. I get a lot of folks can’t afford $200 for niche art. I am one of those people!😅
