The trouble with Lemmy as an alternative to reddit, or ANY place as an alternative to reddit, is that eventually the server costs are going to rack up and it’ll either shut down or have to ask more and more for payment. I’m okay paying, but a lof of people probably aren’t. We’ll see how all this unfolds in the coming months.
I’m not worried. Mastodon instances have already happily been funded by their userbase, so I don’t see why it’d be any different here.
