@stefan I find the wording a little strange honestly, but as an artist I completely support the sentiment. We need more creative folks in here!
One stronger argument for me is that followers on fedi works very similarly to a newsletter, as if you want to switch to another instance or a completely different Fediverse service you are not loosing your social graph. So effort put into finding your people will not go to waste.
But that would be even more real once post portability will be standard
