That makes sense. I guess there's no one stopping someone from creating an instance which has ads and tries to do a for-profit version right? The only thing that might happen is all the other instances un-federating it.
Pretty much. I feel like people see Lemmy and Mastodon in its current state, and they think oh that's the fediverse, then. But as the fediverse grows, everything on it will have to evolve or die. I mean, Lemmy is in alpha at the moment. The more instances and people start using Lemmy, the more it will have to change to accommodate those people. Infrastructure will have to be created, even new policies on how servers can communicate to avoid abuse. This is all just the beginning.
