Hosting an instance myself, I’m not amused, because if forces my instance to literally sync all content there is on the lemmyverse, drastically increasing traffic, storage use etc.
Please don’t force resource consumption beyond any rational usage!

Managing 1.2k posts / day, sounds like a challenge
Although I like the idea, unfortunately, automated posting without proper moderation puts all the mod work on federated instances admins?
Since the entire goal of the fediverse is “transporting” all data to all servers inside the ActivityPub/fediverse world, the data of a EU member will be transported all over the place.
It doesn't work like that, think of your instance being a proxy to the fediverse
Here in Germany social non profit clubs are a thing. You can officially register them and there are laws, regulations that protect them from just being taken over. They have boards that get elected by the members on a regular basis. I think that could be a great model on how to run an instance that is truly owned by its members.
If someone wants to go ahead, count me in.
