Just curious as this is all fun and open till it scales to expensive. What is the lemmy.ca plan to sustain / fund it self?

Constant donation nagging like Wikipedia?

Server load is a funny thing, I suspect if your instance hosts many busy communities that your instance is going to have increased resource needs quickly. While search and feeds are shared each community is owned by a specific instance correct?
