    I’m not sure Lemmy will be able to grow too big. As soon as an instance starts to get thousands of viewers moderation/hosting costs become too high for hobbyists.

      I don’t think a paid instance is out of the question. Someone who knows the licensing better can correct me.

      I paid Reddit $30/year for years. If this gets anywhere close, I’d be happy to do the same here.

      I’ll pay for things that are reasonably priced.
