Probably not, though it has actual celebrities doing things like AMAs. Though I meant more like smaller time content creators offering their artwork. e.g. the Nathan Pyle comics are quite well-known, but would they remain so if the author posted exclusively to Lemmy and/or Mastodon and/or Friendica, but no longer to Reddit or X or Facebook? We might get the reposts here, but the actual content creators themselves go to where the audience is waiting to receive their works.
So if they became known by a certain handle, on let’s say kbin.social, and then they switched to DMV.social, and then they kept switching around to other places - except sometimes people try to impersonate them and already jump out ahead of them and grab their username on some other instance, … that’s not quite as ideal for their needs. Which helps explain why content creators gravitate towards more “stable” platforms that require less work to set up and stay on then e.g. having to self-host your own instance.
