@freemo I gather that's much more than just Mastodon and Fediverse-related things?
Thanks for hosting our insanity. :)

I profit only very indirectly. Long before I hosted QOTO I had a large amount of content I was developing or developed that was open-source/open-science/open-hardware. I mostly kept it on github. I started QOTO so I had a place to host everything I needed for myself, gitlab for most of my materials, funkwhale because i wanted to start doing podcasts (which I never got around to), and this site as a way to get the word out about my projects and collaborate. In the spirit of open-source I figured I'd open it to anyone to use with a similar need as mine, a place to do open-STEM and collaborate as they do it.
So I profit in much the same way any user of QOTO profits really, by having a STEM platform focused at "creators".
@freemo @QOTO wow! I guess that's the price of the best Mastodon instance I know. Thank you!
