I don't trust stanford to not work on behalf of the CIA or other 3 alphabet orgs. They kind of turn a blind eye to CSA in churches but a federated media? This sounds like a smear job.

You're kind of jumping over the comment there. You pay for database or image storage or CPU cycles or bandwidth PLUS the management, execs, HR, shareholders if this were to be run like a company. What they're saying is we kind of skip the most expensive costs by relying on the fediverse as a non-profit entity.8
Nice! I want to look into vietnam as well
You make good point. Even if many people go back to reddit post blackout it still is a win. I think even if lemmy's traffic drops down to "pre-API debacle" levels, there's a key difference between then and now namey that people now know lemmy exists. They are not beholden to reddit. I think reddit, inc would be more careful about pissing off their users now that lemmy jas gotten a significant mindshare.
I would choose being poor just to avoid being able to read this.
