People willing to host and a coalition of those who want to fund those efforts with no motivation other than an altruistic desire to support the platform. Some will succeed, some will fail, ideally it becomes normal to sustain something for which you derive value given these platforms do not seek to profit and can have transparent conversation on their finances. It reminded me of public radio in many ways which, other than sometime bluring the lines corporate underwriting, enjoy most of their financing coming from people of their own free will.
