“I think it’s important, for the ecosystem to thrive, that there be a way to have premium content to build businesses here,” he said. “That’s a fundamental belief.”

Hard pass.

There isn't a need, that's some bullshit. Maybe some want to monetize their platform, but certainly not all. Fuck this push for finding another way to charge people for shit at every turn being masked as creator support.

I hate it.

So how is your home instance financially sustaining itself? Surely you're helping it, right?

sub.club is not aimed at servers but monetization of content from individual users. Opposing this doesn't mean someone oppose supporting their home instance monetarily.
