    So how is your home instance financially sustaining itself? Surely you’re helping it, right?

      sub.club is not aimed at servers but monetization of content from individual users. Opposing this doesn’t mean someone oppose supporting their home instance monetarily.

      Idk if this is some misguided insult or a legit question.

      There is zero need for monetization and corporate bullshit to infiltrate Lemmy. People see an opportunity to get in on the ground floor of a newer social media and are quick to stink it up with the same old shit. Fuck that, I’m sick of it.

      Lemmy does not have to be a carbon copy of the worst parts of the internet to survive. It is not a requirement to be a reddit clone or a cash generator or be profitable to be usable.
