I started using Mastodon few years back by curiosity but haven't found my place there yet, so I'm not an active user. Eager to start engaging there though 😁

Perhaps it is just me, but it comes off as a bit creepy asking people to give you other people's information without any indication of what you'll use it for. I know you're a decent guy, and you've been on Mastodon for a long time, so you must be aware this looks like a really weird thing to ask for. Why not just tell people what you're planning on doing with this data so people can make an informed choice about whether to submit?

@edent hmm, fair enough. I'm compiling a list of Makers on Mastodon to be featured in a Mastodon client when the feature launches. I'll be reaching out to anyone submitted by someone else and obtaining their consent to participate.

Launching soon!
Mastodon is too hard to use. it's like crypto. Nobody will ever really use it. After twitter I think linkedIn will be the place people will migrate to.

Hey Chris! I noticed you're on the lookout for Makers on Mastodon. While I'm not a maker on Mastodon myself, I'm really interested in what you're building to give visibility to this group. My name is Jan, and I've got a background that might be helpful for your venture. I lead Partnerships, Affiliate & SEO over at Speechify.com. My efforts there include scaling their Chrome extension from 20,000 to a staggering 2,000,000+ users. Not only that, I've run campaigns that went viral with returns exceeding 1000% ROI. Through these endeavors, I've had the privilege to push Speechify to over 20M+ installs. I've also had the chance to delve deep into influencer marketing campaigns. To give you a snapshot, I've transformed a humble $100 USD budget into a reach of 8.6M impressions, raking in sales in the hundreds of thousands. Not to mention, my projects have generated over 250 viral videos each garnering 100K+ views for numerous brands. On a personal note, my journey has seen me amass over 100K followers, with my content hitting the 17,000,000 views mark in under three months. My endeavors also extend to mentoring a LATAM influencer network that generated a whopping 300,000,000 views in a similar timeframe. So, why am I telling you all this? Because I believe with my experience in growth marketing, I can provide some substantial value to your initiative. Let's connect and see how we can synergize to elevate the visibility of Makers on Mastodon. Looking forward to hearing from you! Best, Jan P.S. A fun fact about me – I dream of celebrating my 100th birthday in a stadium filled with 100,000 people I've made a positive impact on. Here's hoping you'll be one of them!
