Perhaps the solution is to let go of the idea that Mastodon should be free of charge? Communities that have created organizations with budgets could use those to provide Mastodon as a service to their users. Other instances could charge a few bucks a year and solve all of their financial issues. Perhaps sponsorship could also cover costs.
- JustinGarrison 3y agoThe decoder interview touched on that and he said they have no plans for that model. Right now all of the larger instances have a variety of ways to get donations. I agree it would be better if it were integrated into the app to make it easier to find for users and track for admins.
