They (celebrities) would have the biggest pull to get people moved onto one of these new services.
I know nothing short of the names as I don't need that kind of app or service but if one of these new places like blue sky or mastadon had an easy way to get signed up for the masses then someone like Taylor Swift saying she was signing up and to join her there as she drops twixxter then millions of people would sign up in days.
The issue is that not every artist is a celebrity.
Sure Taylor Swift can move a lot of people, but some upcoming niche artist can barely hold onto the little audience they built even by staying there.
