I’m wondering how are all those different Lemmy instances financed? I know some rely on donations, but is that all and is that sustainable?

    ber of instances grows 100x, all existing instances face an increase in costs even if they didn’t gain many more users, because they’re receiving more messages from federated instances,

    The German feddit.de hosters (the one I’m using and probably the 5th largest instance) declined donation completely when I last checked…
