MODERATORS
Why does lemmy.world, the largest instance, not simply eat the other instances?
So we end up with one instance having to serve millions of users... for free... Hmm yes that's going to work.
People on Lemmy are not going to like it but either Lemmy takes off and people will have to find ways to fund their instances or Lemmy dies.
We're in a nice period right now where kind people are able to run instances on donations or from their own pocket. But it's not going to last.
Let's have a mass organized bake sale. We'll call the lemon squares "Lemmy Squares". People will love it.
Lemmy Squares sounds adorable. We need a recipe for this.
