You would make a great CEO. $2 to $20, a %1000 markup, and you attribute it to "times have changed.".
If it was 9.99 or something that would more than make up for the inflation + additional profits per purchase. The rest is greed. This is the exact reason people left reddit.
The portion of purchases should be donated to Lemmy devs. Lemmy, just like any other open source platform, relies on donations.
What percent goes to Lemmy devs? If it's a high portion (50%ish) then I'm on board.
Do you have a source on this, or are you making a suggestion?
It's a suggestion. A lot of Firefish instances have notices asking everyone to donate to the instance owner or the devs of Firefish.
