That does appear to be the case. I wonder if it was like this in ancient Rome. Gladiator arenas for entertainment, bread and circuses, etc.?
I'd say go for what's actually interesting to you is a pretty solid approach, but is that any different from what the majority are doing? (ie: "Elon is interesting, so that's who I'll attend to" ?)
Yes, I'm curious about the same thing.
Interesting last line in your comment there, thanks for the food for thought. I'll continue thinking on it. 🙏
Musk is sensational, but I've not seen him saying much that is interesting to me, so I don't follow him. His companies are doing cool stuff though.
I have read some articles about 'influencers' who get stressed out by having to continuously produce content to satisfy their fans. They may lose some if they need a break. I'm a long way from that sort of fame and quite happy where I am.

Seems like a good summary of it all, well said.
Allowing 'fear of loss' (whether of fans or something else), is certainly a stressor for many people, but one that I'm not sure is necessary. I can't imagine the world will run out of fans, and taking a break or 'losing' some hopefully doesn't stress people who have built a following out? lol.

I expect this influencer business is very competitive. You need the fans to be able to earn and so losing some could hit your income. I do not follow such people and so it's not too relevant to me.
Anyone can be earning on Hive though.
Sure it hits their income, but they're pretty successful. It's like someone hitting Warren Buffet or Steve Jobs income... not exactly 'panic-worthy', at least for many of them, so I'm not super-clear on the fear of loss.
And yes! That's part of the beauty of Hive!
Does that make everyone an 'influencer' on Hive? :)
