      I'd be angry about the total lack of responsibility large accounts on here have towards other people but Twitter is a terrible site that doesn't make that responsibility clear and tends to reward bad faith, and no one signs up for Twitter to get responsibility dumped on them

      They don’t think “With great power comes great responsibility” applies here, as they don’t see their influence as real power.

      You certainly don't get any money from it

      It's not directly transferrable, but some accounts have successfully monetised their accounts (though this is largely impersonal accounts like We Rate Dogs which are based around a brand.)

      But it is transferable. Even though not always visibly or in an causal way. Should I get old Bourdieu out and talk about "social capital" and "symbolic capital"? Or is it enough to point to it? 😁

      No, the specific actions you have to take in order to make money from your Twitter account are detailed and complex enough that anyone trying to claim any kind of direct ratio of X followers = Y dollars is outright lying

      If you're going to bang on about social capital and symbolic capital, you need to understand that the idea that online metrics actually measure those things is completely false

          There are people with enormous social capital who do not use the Internet at all, and there are people or entities with a very large online "presence" whose actual meaningful social capital is very little

          The whole thing about the WeRateDogs stuff is people were really shocked and disappointed at the expose on how that account actually works Because it's run like a business, requiring a lot of labor and a lot of decisions that feel "disingenuous" and "unnatural"
