Aw hell yeah!
You're comparing a for-profit endeavor with something that isn't meant to be profit driven. Apart from that, what "profit" do the Lemmy devs make? They aren't making anywhere near market rate for the skill set they provide.
Just check instances to see if they have donations.
Another thing that would help is if there was a way to link to a post/comment that wasn't an https URL. E.g., you can link to a community like ! community@instance and when anybody clicks it, they'll go to their instance's view of the community, but when you link a post it's like https://instance/post/whatever so it navigates you away from your home instance. This is just in relation to the "seeing dead links" aspect. Because even when an instance goes offline, other instances will still have copies of the posts from it.
Is there some benefit Delta V wise to having a lunar or orbiting lunar base perhaps?
Yeah, I mean, we do send robot rovers places. Which I guess is similar in some sense.
Oh wow, wasn't expecting that
I guess I need to brush up on queer history!
Obviously, "It Depends™" but usually an allowlist is better than a blocklist because it fails closed in a sense.

The downside to that being that they weren't really standing tall to begin with, I suppose.
