Unfortunately, only Europe. Because manufacturers still want to capitalize on those “not easily removable” batteries in the rest of the world.
Terrible idea. If someone likes your instance so much, they’d probably be happy to pitch in and donate.
Want money for hosting, but you’re not receiving enough donations? Just get a job! It’s not like you only stay at home to watch your Lemmy.
Ads will never, EVER become a built-in feature of the Lemmy software. Try implementing it yourself, even though Rust is not an easy programming language to master.
This stems from how other instance admins reported issues with scalability of Lemmy’s multimedia storage, and the fact it can inflate cloud costs very much.
I was actually hesitant at first, because I didn’t know of a good alternative. Then, there’s Lemmy that I’ve heard of. Since lemmy.world has been compromised, I chose this server. I still haven’t escaped Reddit fully. However, the fact the board at Reddit Inc. accepted and implemented the new API pricing made my decision to come to Lemmy quicker.
I’m pretty sure that, under the hood, they become evil towards their users and don’t change from that. And will never reconsider rescinding the things we’re grateful to not have in the fediverse: profits fueled by advertising rather than donations, tracking sensitive information (including that one can and will use against you), selling that information, and obscure, closed algorithms.
But what you said may be right. Those goddamn C&D orders backed by powerful lawyers…
Same here! Though my Reddit escape is going to be slow, it’s sure.
I do not understand why would a developer (or development team) change the licensing terms of their software for something stricter, like Redis did. Could someone tell me what the factors are?
