@bhaggs@alabut@mastohost@omgdotlol Yup given all the things designers in tech pay $10/month for - a fast host + community + communication tool seems like a good value. If you can get 250-300 designers to pre-commit seems worth trying.
@bhaggs Yup - winning is easy, governing's harder. We got spoiled by a single entity that had tons of $ and incentive to keep things fast/easy. I see this played out in DAOs as well...
@bhaggs “New registrations are currently on hold. We’re so grateful for the enthusiasm we've received during the past few months. While we’re excited to be part of a larger extended Fediverse community, we need to keep this server at a size that we’re able to afford, maintain, and moderate.“ eg 500 people - how does this scale??
