I just realized I'm taking my ad-free experience in Lemmy for granted. It's refreshing to have a little corner of the internet that doesn't slam you with advertising.
Soon, when things go smoother, I absolutely wouldn't mind either having ads or paying a low annual fee.
The problem with Reddit was seeking out vulture capital. Turning a small profit, enough to pay people something resembling wages, isn't a bad thing.
Wikipedia is funded via donations, de-centralized social media could be too
Maybe. But I think Wikipedia is easier to run than Reddit, even if it's only partial Reddit.
