Mastodon’s Business Model Might Not Be Enough to Compete With X

Although Mastodon does have a diverse business model and has the capability to succeed in the long run, competing with a company the size of X is challenging without significant resources. If Mastodon chooses to keep its platform ad-free, it’ll need to think about how it markets existing revenue streams and potentially create new ones.

Lol what

This feels like a badly organized listicle than an actual discussion about what might happen

Like an LLM-generated listicle. “Mastodon” doesn’t have a business model any more than email does.
