I think the portability of the social graph is a huge value prop. And due to the TikTok thing, I imagine a lot of people recently realized they can lose an entire brand and following overnight

But average consumer not really affected by this?

The creators will be on Instagram / X / YouTube if TikTok goes away. 

Definitely important to creators but creators are motivated by size of potential audience…

Hmm yeah, true. But as someone who was not previously active on social media or web3, that’s actually part of what attracted me here. But I don’t think I’m necessarily an average consumer lol

I think the average consumer is affected, because it's a bit of a pain to go find / rebuild your social graph on another platform

Most people aren't losing an audience when a platform goes away, but that doesn't mean it's not a disruptive experience

But if the consumers are following creators and creators do choose platforms that allow greater portability it indirectly matters to the consumers.
