Server hardware isn’t free. At the end of the day, SOMEONE has to pay the bills. Either you are the customer, or the product. If you insist on being the product, you don’t get to be surprised when platforms focus on the actual customers that actually pay the bills, by enshittifying the platform.
When you are not a predatory bussiness your "clients" are not your enemy. So donations come in.
People are willing to pay for something that they use. What people don't like is paying for making someone rich without working.
Well said! My instance doesn't need ads because the servers don't care about profits.
