Lemmy is the second largest federated platform, falling only behind Mastodon, and even still is nowhere near the size of Reddit. As it grows, the costs for the instance owners will grow too. Would you be open to a subscription model, where costs to run an instance are split between the members via a direct fee?

I thought Matrix was also bigger than Lemmy, but didn't see their numbers. Yes, I would be open to paying a small monthly donation or hosting a small instance.
