Was just thinking how nice it is to be on social media and not be bombarded with ads!

Its amazing how this is the first site in years that I dont need to install blockers or scroll through bs or be so cynical with what I read.

Fellow Australians, rejoice in this little space we have from corporate bombardment

This is definitely what I am interested in and have concerns about - look at the growth of .world already. Assuming growth continues, there comes a point where there has to be some major upgrading and additional costs to deal with all aspects of that growth and the complexity and services and requests and compliance that comes with it.

How will data be retained, or won't it? What if an instance becomes unsustainable or the owner decides they no longer want to deal with it all - there's a lot of questions and at the moment it doesn't feel clear.
