How many users are on these instances?
(And you are still ignoring the cost of labor.)
it’s fine if you want to have it as a hobby. It’s not fine if you want to destroy Big Tech.
A dollar per year won’t even cover the storage bills, much less the labor of admins and moderators.
What suggestions do you have to change the way we’re treating/running it currently?
Plain and simple, instances should require some form of contribution from all members. Let’s stop pretending that the people here can not pay a dollar or two per month.
