First all the bs with Twitter and Elon, then Reddit having an exodus to Lemmy (not complaining lol), then Twitch. Are we like, in an alternate self healing dimension or something?

    This action that we all have taken, by using this platform instead. Is it the “correct approach”? Lemmy being open source and de-centralized system. The apps and server software being organically developed in public by those knowledgeable/ skilled in the community.

    I would favor this place, where dev team can receive donations for their work. Have an clear plan for the year with objectives on their github page or website. So that the overall thing contentious to operate/ function. Even OK to have informative & valuable ads but not being disruptive on the sides.

      We might try with “opt in” adds, go to profile to enable them, but allow community to vote for ads and see if that can provide enough revenue.

      I would be much less bothered with ads if I would see some kind of effort to make them less annoying.
