When the phone industry runs out of innovation, they bring back old tech like flip phones. What next? Physical buttons/keyboards? How about longer battery life? Oh wait, that requires real innovation, time, and money.
I shared this one on other social media platforms, and some tech bros are angry 😔 lol. I never understood why some people worship big corporations so much šŸ¤” It is not just that these companies are also firing people left and right despite making huge fortunes. They only care about meeting shareholders' bottom lines; everyone else is just a casualty. So much for one big happy family 😵

Can anyone give an idea (however much of a rough estimate) of the cost of running an instance of Mastodon? Like bandwidth, effort in managing etc. I want to see how much it costs to create an open space for people to be social in this format without confirming to the constraints of commercial social media platforms. The idea came from reading about how popular app Apollo is going commercial likely ahead of an IPO which will likely destroy the business model. I understand both sides but I’m trying to wrap my head around overall operating costs.
