If it's free, you are the product.

I haven't paid for Lemmy yet. Well, other than volunteer time.

I guess if we want something where we're not the product, we have to build it ourselves.

What makes you so sure that the person hosting your instance isn't monetizing it or trying to find a way to monetize it in the background?

Maybe they're selling all these posts and DMs to OpenAI?

They don't need to sell access... It's free. Assume anything you post here is getting sniffed up by everyone.
