I'm really enjoying lemmy. I think we've got some growing pains in UI/UX and we're missing some key features (like community migration and actual redundancy). But how are we going to collectively pay for this? I saw an (unverified) post that Reddit received 400M dollars from ads last year. Lemmy isn't going to be free. Can someone with actual server experience chime in with some back of the napkin math on how expensive it would be if everyone migrated from Reddit?

Reddits is poor 😢 in c/memes@lemmy.ml

Has anyone seen a reasonable breakdown of how much Reddit costs to run? Or how much lemmy collectively might cost?

Are Lemmy posts indexed by Google? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

Hopefully in time google search would be smart enough to know all the instances of lemmy are all lemmy. Maybe site:lemmy.ml won’t work but just adding lemmy at the end of a search might
