oh right, the guy from the thing
I think itβs a joke on βsex workersβ.
I'd expect at least the authors who do talks about the Fediverse to be here: Cory Doctorow... Marc-Uwe Kling... There are some webcomic authors as well. And we have some journalists. Heise Online comes to mind, they have their own Peertube instance. Then some other known activists, bloggers... And some people share drawings, fanart etc, not sure if that counts.
Edit: I forgot George Takei, and several other people.
Here's some list of noteworthy accounts including some celebrities: https://joinfediverse.wiki/Notable_Fediverse_accounts
Am I not reading that right, or is it only a list of Masto accounts?
Fedi directory has some entries under culture:

I'm trying to get established, I've just got a few more things to sort out before I can start putting stuff out there regularly.
I make music and write programs
The accounts that post to !unix_surrealism@lemmy.sdf.org and !funhole@lemmy.sdf.org are pretty great. I don't know any of their IRL names (nor do I wish to, to some extent).
