    Seems like they have a decent clip of donations so far. But if they need to sell memberships or put up some innocuous banner ads to keep the service free, I’m okay with that too.

      Idk if ads will ever be a viable solution for Lemmy since everyone uses their own front end for the most part. It’s like the Reddit issue with third party apps not serving ads except on Lemmy that’s the majority of users.

        Individual instances can probably host ads or promoted posts. Not sure how that would work though.
