The Reddit app is potentially introducing a Contributor program, allowing users to earn real money for their contributions, creating a self-sustaining ecosystem within the community.
I meant blowed up in the sense of like, genuinely goes out of service (i was at work at the time, i did not explain properly). But yeah, if it gets too popular for the admin to handle that may also be an issue. So far I like lemmy a little more than reddit. I think I will always miss apollo, but this will guarantee that my third party client will not go out of service 🙏🏼
I mean that too. The second it goes popular, the instance will either run out of traffic, or will suddenly cost tens of thousands of dollars per day. There is a huge jump in price there, from 10-50 dollars a month to a hundred thousands.
you’re correct 👍🏼 i want lemmy to get popular, but these are the roadblocks that we need to watch out for.
at least the solution is easy tho, make more servers
Instances being blowed up will be a huge issue if the whole thing will be getting really popular. And if not, it might die anyway
