One problem is that this sounds like the financial recentralization of an effort to decentralize social media.
Really, this is sounding like a social solution to a technical problem. The scalability is a technical problem that needs to be worked on at that level, not at the level of setting up whatever committees and legal institutions and whatever else to try to move money around to paper over technical concerns.

...somehow.
Considering the time I already have to invest to update my existing IT and com infrastructure, I am not sure if I would want to invest even more time for Filters, etc.
Earlier in this thread, there was the toot of a guy who set up his instance just to play onlinegames with about 100 players.
Apparently, he had...
@volkris @The_Onliest @paul @fediversereport @fediversenews @david @Bluedepth @darren @juneussell
...a hard time regarding resources after he "made the mistake to follow back all the players". (from my memory)
I cannot remember any system managing such an onslaught of new users without going down, at least fir a time.
A lot of instances seemed to scramble in November, when the Twitter takeover happened.
Even if you are...
@volkris @The_Onliest @paul @fediversereport @fediversenews @david @Bluedepth @darren @juneussell
...completely right and the #Fediverse can easily technically manage that.
What if not 2k new users per day want to open accounts but 10k or 30k?

I would be *very* pleased, if this turned out to be a none-issue of sorts.
Even better, if (centralized) financing and maybe the redistribution of funds are unnecessary.
I have read that there are many instances-of-one, or really small ones.
I am not an IT pro. If I were to set up my own instance, I guess I'd figure it out...
