Cool, the community is big enough. I’d welcome more, but I like social media better when the techies are the majority.
Let’s keep using it while it costs investors money then bail for matrix as soon as they start making money! That’s how we fight capitalism.
I like upvotes, otherwise I’d have stayed on forums. It’s also one of the only ethical algorithmic sorting methods as long as you can whitelist your members.
It just seems like the work for the mods is perportional to the user count. I can see maybe making exceptions to the membership fee for certain classes, just mention it in your application. Just a thought
We need to pay our mods! I saw you all make a significant amount per month as an instance from donations, let’s make it go up! maybe you should put a $1/month minimum on the instance for users? This is what will make lemmy better than reddit for sure.
No that’s insane. And also all clouds are getting pricy. At work a single instance AWS RDS sql server is costing $250/month…
Get a raspberry pi and do everything at home.
All good questions! I’d also just like to know what a few of the “best” instances are to watch videos on. I don’t get discovery. They all have weird names.
