@simon I have no objection. to anyone promoting a book they wrote or other personal for-profit endeavor. Likewise I have no problem with someone who writes for a publication and posts links here which will "earn" them clicks. I post links to my tiny blog (below) which earns me nothing except the satisfaction of knowing some people appreciate what I write. What I do feel uncomfortable with is a corp. trying to monetize Mastodon. halbrown.org
