If the reddit exodus happens and Lemmy gets even 2% of reddit’s daily active users, how will Lemmy sustain the increased traffic? I know donations are an option, but I don’t think long term donations will be sustainable. Most users will never donate.
I know the goal of Lemmy isn’t to make money, but I know that servers and storage costs add up quickly. Not to mention the development costs.
I would love to hear the plans for how to offset those costs in the future?
Please make mod tools a top priority. It’s absolutely asinine that I need to have someone comment in a community to add them as a mod.
Contributions welcome.

Lemmy is not a company, it’s built by volunteers. If you want a corporate platform go to Reddit.

As you wish.
Bud, this is like going to someone’s house for a party and complaining that they don’t have your favorite beer. How about you go for a beer run?

I didn’t say anything was in a great state. I just said this software is like a party, no one’s here to serve you. You aren’t going to be catered-to because your eyeballs are worth selling. So if you want it to happen, help out. That’s how it works.

we just think you’re a prick, this isnt about what you’re saying, it’s about how you’re saying it

Hell, even if it isn’t strictly a mod tool, being able to do this from someone’s profile page would be good.
Wholeheartedly agree
