Having said that, is it really the end of the world if large Lemmy instances have ads to make up for any shortfall in donations? Otherwise, how are large instances expected to be sustainable long term, especially if they’re going to ever reach the kinds of traffic Reddit sees?
i overall agree.
one point i struggle agreeing / see what you mean is small instances mean small communities.
I’m on lemmy.ml, but i use lemmy as federated, i don’t see the lemmy.ml community when on lemmy, but the fediverse.
in a way I don’t care on what instance i am.
i come from a distributed systems background and to ne this is normal.
is that anti fediverse?
