I’m not trying to be aggressive, but short replies usually get seen as more aggressive than long ones.
We run instances for free.
For now, because the cost of serving is low. I already know of some instances that are taking donations due to rapidly increasing server costs. I don’t know if the donation model is going to be sustainable as more instances grow.
Have many smaller instances and not have everyone flock to one or two big instances. Bam. Problem solved.
It isn’t just about one of two instances. I won’t be surprised if the number of communities get locked down in instances as a way to control server costs. However, there is value in having groups of a certain size, and I think the Fedeverse isn’t at that size yet.
