I have considered hosting an instance but my ISP has vague terms prohibiting that sort of thing.

As far as I know email is an entirely different protocol than the fediverse so they wouldn’t coincide. It’s possible someone hosts an email server alongside their fediverse server but that’s not really the same thing as it being part of the fediverse.

I have a server setup with TrueNAS Scale installed and I would love something as simple as a Lemmy app for TrueCharts. I know TrueNAS scale uses k8s for apps so this should be possible but from my limited research it seems like something I’d have to figure out on my own for the most part.

Idk if ads will ever be a viable solution for Lemmy since everyone uses their own front end for the most part. It’s like the Reddit issue with third party apps not serving ads except on Lemmy that’s the majority of users.

I haven’t seen any official posts linking to the Patreon made since this influx. People lurking aren’t very likely to think about it and seek that out. If it becomes a problem then I think making some sort of official announcement encouraging donations would go a long way. I personally already donated to the Patreon.
