    In both instances Spez/reddit gets $0 right? That was part of the whole issue they had.

    Don’t get me wrong reddit is done to me, but the circle jerk is getting a little silly at times.

      The joke/truth is that users are willing to pay for good services and good products. Spez could have had a cut of either of those but actively chose not to via the way things were handled.

        Don’t forget community. Something that honestly cannot be bought.

    Is there a way to have uhm like mail where I can have control of my domain, so my user@domain is completely mine and I can use always as I have control over it.

    But without having a full Lemmy instance? Some basic thing which does the minimum to validate my user and maybe store my subs and stuff like that but not storing anything from other instances etc… Just the very minimum, no pictures, no posts, etc. Although storing m comments and posts would be nice but not needed. Or similar to mail, were I could have my domain but I simply setup the MX record to some third-party so they handle the annoying part and I simply own the mail@domain.
