     @goatsarah That is a popcorn worthy thread.

     > But you know that your pristine garden is going to have ads at some point, that's the only way social media is sustainable.

     Yeouch! Damn, like, they don't understand a large portion of the internet. Like, no understanding of FOSS at all.

     This whole thread was eye opening.

     @Madagascar_Sky I'd live them to explain the mechanism by which my Friendica server, which is sitting in a drawer in the next room, starts serving ads.

     Because I sure as fuck don't want their money.

     @lori M2 though. I feel like I should make that bit clear. It’s a very NICE Mac mini.

     "Teach advertisers how non-profit community-run platforms function Challenge (Impossible!)"

     Seriously, I almost can't believe this person is so drunk on kool-aid that they can't possibly imagine people running a service just because they want to. "If you can't profit off of it, how can it exist?" So thankful I avoided this mindset.
