I make a monthly donation to the folks running mastodon.world (they also run lemmy.world). Yeah it's free but you can and should contribute sometimes to keep it that way.

Open source doesn't really count, especially with Lemmy where you just can host it yourself and there's no way for anyone to harvest your data really
