I’m engaging with dozens of servers and hundreds of creators on lemmy, and I’d like to give back to more of them. I built a tool a few years ago called subless(subless.com) which aimed to do something similar for the non-federated internet, and I’d like to make something for the Fediverse too.

Do you think donations should be distributed like content?

I threw together a survey that would really help me understand how y’all are thinking about donations. I’d really appreciate it if anyone could fill it out.

Thanks!

    If we want to leave ad tracking hell, we need to be willing to put up some expenses or reimagine Federation to be at the user level instead of the instance level.

      I guess it depends on what you want?

      Is it some sort of ‘get together and share stuff’ thing or a ‘earn a living from content creation’ ?

      I mean you can spin up a small instance for 10€ a month if it’s the former…

        One of the big problems now is the amount of space needed to host media. It’s gonna be a limiting factor quick.

          Weell yeah maybe. But I just got myself a spare 3TB drive for like 30€ so I can backup my Lemmy who’s living on a 4TB drive. Will it be enough? For some time I sure do think so.
