I'm positive at least some of the servers that house Lemmy and its FOSS sister networks are housed in VC companies. The amount of people who can support that data and the servers it resides on is small without Corps being in the mix.
We're not exactly winning over here on Lemmy or Mastodon. I've been a member of the Mastodon community for close to 6 years or so. It isn't a reasonable replacement for Twitter because (for what I used it for, which had nothing to do with Micro logging), it doesn't do what I need it to because the number of people I want to follow there are few and far between. Bands, book authors, local news networks, international news networks. I'm not likely to find out about school closings on Mastodon.
I get my school closings on mastodon already https://m.ai6yr.org/@nwsalbuquerque_bot try harder because all I'm hearing is capitalist jock riding and should do that in private.
