First post, honest question.
Who will pay for lemmy? There were a few sites that started sometime back because they were fed up with something about reddit but eventually they all crashed because they had no funds. How will lemmy be different?

The costs to push data are fairly trivial at the moment. Where peertube will struggle due to technical barriers (mostly just storage/duplication), text and images are just not that taxing.
Let me assure you whole it sorts itself there’s no shortage of people throughout the history of new cool things who want to host and play with them. We’re probably headed to maintain those through foundations/donations.
The cool part is just like email you shouldn’t have to be permanently synchronized, meaning you could run an instance you collect like an email client at near 0 cost to anyone.
