It’s a bit confusing but you indeed need to interact with the thread through your own instance, you can pick which instance you’re using from the top menu:

Basically it’s the same as if you’d go to lemmy.world on your browser and tried to do stuff there, but using an app hides this detail a bit. Hope this helps!

This tool looks awesome!

This has worked for me really well too, the price is good and things just work.

Good points. Also it’s a bit of a stretch to say the different parties are using it for free anyway, because professionally maintaining infrastructure in a way where even a bit of resilience is expected is not cheap. The budget for running these self-hosted platforms can easily be eaten by one person’s salary + infrastructure costs. It in many cases would probably be cheaper to just pay for Slack, but because of some requirements they rather pick one of the open source ones and do what they can within the allocated budgets. I doubt there’s any malicious intent in these situations, or any wish to just be freeloading, but something a bit more complex.

Ofc would be nice if money was flowing the right direction.

That’s quite a bit of work, well done. Shame to hear that the funding situation is like that.

Awesome, thanks for sharing. I was looking for something like this a while ago and never bumped into this one, it’s very useful!

Wasn’t aware of the whole Celcius Network thing, interesting https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Celsius_Network

Are there any examples of projects they are actively contributing to?
