I’m fairly new and don’t 100% understand it yet, but instances are run on servers that require money. Are we heading towards seeing ads or subscriptions to raise funds instead of relying on donations to cover overhead?

Especially with the influx of new users. Hardware upgrades are needed.

      You mean promotion. Not all promotion is bad. When a game developper posts a content update about their game, that’s promotion. And I think most subscribers of that community will be pretty happy to see that kind of promotion. It’s opt in.

        No, I mean ads. “Hey Kbinlets, what’s your favorite fast food? I just love how crispy KFC is!”

      I wonder if the mod who deleted my comment is in denial, or trying to cover their ass.
