UserBenchmark is a joke. They aren’t just biased in a normal way, but rather they have an obsession on AMD and throw lots of weird insults like this.

The thought was that it’d be closer to that, than the 12 times larger suggestion.

And yeah, I was definitely only taking hosting costs into account, because every instance is maintained by volunteers. I was also only thinking about large instances that benefit from economies scale and smarter management.

I took a quick glance at that thread, will have a more thorough pass later.

with more than $1-2 per year. ;)

More than my own share for sure, regardless of the result of the other argument.

why don’t you wish that everyone did the same?

I do. But a paywall adds a considerable barrier to entry.

Well, at this point I would like to point out that I religiously avoid paying anything to hostile services, and that I do support the small independent instance I’m on.

Well, I guess it’s priorities. Destroying Big Tech would be pretty nice, but I’m really just here for the community.

Per user? There are instances running on like $10/mo virtual servers with maybe the same amount spent on storage.

I actually kind of enjoy the “scrappy diy effort niche” thing.

I think a dollar or two per year would suffice if all users paid it.

Sorry, but this picture was too perfect to just scroll past. This is the kind of bullshit I live for.

I was half joking, but honestly thank you for the explanation. I hadn’t thought of that.

So, as a non-native English speaker, I’d like to ask:

If these letters weren’t supposed to be pronounced, why the hell did you even put them there in the first place?

Sorry, I somehow thought the top of this thread was you.

I now got what you were actually saying.

I don’t know anything about this case, but if we don’t know the truth, shouldn’t both parties be treated as innocent?

I’m wary of branding him a rapist or sexual assaulter…

I feel that questioning his appearance because of those accusations is exactly that.

I’m guessing these are all just very recent.

Have 2 keyboards, but that just doesn’t do it. But if I somehow manage to get a more isolated home, I’ll fucking do it for real.

That’s amazing, though I’m not sure people living on the other side of my walls would appreciate it.

“The instance of the person who posted it” seems to be reasonable for comments, but not the thread.

I think it is not only reasonable, but better this way. The canonical server is the one the post originates from. Each server is responsible only for its own users and their content.

I don’t see any difference between posts and comments either. Why is one ok and the other not?
