Sorry for stupid questions and doubts ๐ญ but you said you don't plan to add any plan, monetization or ads. SO never ever right? I'm willing to donate a hell lot to support the lemmy. So it'll always remain like this innocent, inherently open source and always have the same "our"/ "people's" internet, and never like a platform that is above us like it feels when using Twitter or reddit? (I said stupid question cus idk if having activitypub adopted and being decentralized makes lemmy and other platforms inherently "people's" open-source and free internet?
We will never have ads or in-app monetization or crypto scams, no. We'll always be 100% funded by donations and open source grants.
