Gregory's Server@jasongreen @ajroach42 sorry, ended up logging off for the night last night. I moreso mean that as it grows the more servers (I believe that’s the right term for the different ones you can go to?) it will have, which will further divide the population. While personally I view that as a good thing, carving out niches and all that, it will no doubt make financial viability for server owners a challenge.

 @Ascadia102 @jasongreen My instance ~60 users, is funded out of pocket to the tune of about $30/month. An instance of 1000 users would probably need closer to $100/month. So yeah, donations, but not many. @Ascadia102 @jasongreen That's kind of the opposite of what is happening. It started with hundreds of servers run in closets on raspberry pis and old laptops for one or two people, and it's growing in to a bunch of bigger servers with many more people. Small instances are good. |
@jasongreen @ajroach42 since, correct me if I’m mistaken, most servers rely on donations for upkeep?
