I’m pretty new to the fediverse, and I find the idea amazing. But one thing concerns me though. How will server owners be able to afford to run servers with massive amounts of data coming through them? Theoretically speaking, if a Reddit migration were to happen how would server upkeep costs look like?

    Wow, such transparency… that’s awesome. I wonder (hope) if there will be a massive spike in donations in June.

    /me sets alarm to remind me to donate after work since I keep thinking about it while I’m away.

      Ya, no kidding. This piqued my interest, but I did not click expecting to see an actual cost basis! I have been looking at potentially setting up my own node, but at the same time… Perhaps contributing here, financially as well, could be the best option.

      Still fun to play around with my own stuff though :) Thanks guys!
