  • To be fair, often times that question is code for “how can someone contribute to that platform while also paying rent, feeding their kids, etc.”

    I think that’s a fair question and IMHO, for a fedi project to succeed, we need some people who can get paid a reasonable wage to focus their full attention on the work.

    We’re likely going to continue to see folks who ask for Patreon donations and set up fedi hosting businesses, like Ruud at Lemmy World. We’ll also probably see more folks like the Tapbots gang selling fancy clients for a price.

    Individual people will make money so they can live life, but cash cow corporations likely won’t be a thing.
