No, I am not saying that. But I saw at least three separate threads other than yours about monetization. It's super important, and I am not opposed to it, but it seems a lot more interest in that aspect - generally among the 'grow fediverse community' - than in the new platforms or expanding adoption/audience.
I do know a lot about your involvement in AP, and have been a casual follower since b4 WV - definitely no hate!
But a medium is nothing more than it is.
