Unpopular opinion: I'm fine with ads as a form for instances to sustain them selves. (self.lemmyworld)

As long there are no invasive data collection and such, I really wouldn't mind having some ads if that means making instances having more resources to grow and sustain them selves.

I am not fine with that. This should be community driven and not ad driven.

Server space or electricity wise, running an instance will never be free, and it will be more and more expensive as more and more successful Lemmy becomes.

Donations and such will only get Lemmy so far.

The Mastodon servers do it and I am sure Lemmy can do it as well. It also helps spread people to more servers.
