Kind of, I know the lemmy.world guy was already well known to those into fedi, and Earnest has been very transparent with everything, but just in principle I'm a little cautious just because part of the advantage here is no central control.

Even if it never becomes about money, say someone gets hit by a bus, and whoever gains control either doesn't understand or can't cope with it and passes it on to someone else, or maybe even just shuts the whole thing down. I'm sure there are checks being put in place but I'd still hate to see some freak tragedy or something take out a good portion of the users and communities here. Even if the content would have still already federated out.
