did we really just survive this? - Lemmy.world

I am a very patient Apollo refugee. It may take many weeks for some servers to adapt to the ever-growing influx and for new apps to squash bugs and build out functionality. My body is ready. This is now home.
All we gotta do is be patient. It will work out fine, Lemmy has a lot of potential!
I want to believe, but who’s paying the hosting bills?

People! It’s open-source and community driven effort.

Lemmy is a software that can be hosted by anyone. So people just buy servers and run Lemmy instances on them. Of course, if a server has more members, it would require more hardware to run. So either upgrade the server to facilitate more users, or admins can stop the signup process.

People can also donate for maintenance of the server.

how the hell did you manage to have negative downvotes 👀

Ahh, Lemmy servers working up their magic and removing the negativity!
