Comment on If lemmy.world became the biggest in the fediverse with a user base that could rival Reddit. Would it become monetized?

I don’t really see how. If they tried to charge you, why wouldn’t you just join another instance? You’d still see the same stuff. Unless they de-federated, (and I only barely know what I’m talking about here) and became a privately owned site, but then, they’d lose all the content from other instances, which people would flock to immediately.
