    Not necessarily. New users gravitate towards established, large instances, such as lemmy.world and lemmy.ml. Expanding horizontally would just create a few laggy and overflowing instances, and a bunch of tiny instances no one uses.

      And once the devs can’t maintain server costs, they should shut down new registrations.

      There’s no need to charge for servers

        Well, you have a point. Problem would be to get users to use the smaller instances.
