Its absolutely not stolen from another random Lemmy post. No sir.

Interesting pattern emerging, the IT time of the admins is pretty damn priceless, (thank you admins!) but when an instance gets up to scale a lot of them can end up with a hard cost of 10 cents per user per month.

The last stat I remember from Facebook was revenue per user per year was around 4 dollars. At 31b revenue and 2.7b monthly users, Youtubes average profit per user is about $10 per user per year. 100 million people pay for YT premium now.

So if every user paid $1 per month, it might not pay all the costs but the admins could get paid something and the fediverse could scale. The bigger you get though, you get economies of scale from future Fediverse data centers, but also you need really good programmers because its a huge temptation for hackers and propagandists.

I also want to say its a labor of love and a lot of work for mods too who may be non technical but the work and time they put in is important.

Yes it would be monetized, by a swimsuit calendar of each Lemmy user.

Toothpaste.

I just dmed you 20 Copybaras. Their will is senior to ours and they will not be denied.

The only fair way to handle this is for all admins to immediately turn over all passwords to the Crumbgrabber, who will act as an interface between the government and private sector interests in determining the value of each Lemmy user, and whether they are a fit candidate for the mobile infantry. Remember- only service guarantees citizenship.

Its thinking like this that interferes with our strategic objectives.

LEMMY HAS THE CRUMBGRABBER. THAT IS WHY REDDIT HAS NO CHANCE.

If you aren’t sorting by new, you have no backbone and will never please any of the gods of war.

Patton is out. CANNON is in.

YSK Federal Law prohibits the filtering of the word “crumbgrabber”.
