Imagine admins of :pixelfed: servers able to get paid via photo backup subscriptions!
This is how we ethically monetize Pixelfed, getting admins paid, and later users 💪

  Wouldn't it be cool if you could backup your camera roll to your self hosted Pixelfed server, privately, keeping the original file intact? They wouldn't be publicly accessible, unless you want to create a share link, and would be organized with album and tag support, with client side AI recognition to enable powerful search? We think so. :pixelfed: Drive We're planning this feature now, and would love your feedback! No ETA. We're focused on the new app rn ✨ #pixelfed #drive #pixelfedDrive

  @RecapTimeSquad @ajhalili2006 I am still working out the details, one thing that is concerning is expecting admins to maintain backups (some servers shut down without notice), so we may handle this under the official Pixelfed organization level.
  I am open to feedback and suggestions!

  Heyo @dansup! @ajhalili2006 on the line here! If Pixelfed admins would setup up paid subscriptions for camera roll backups, will it the integrated in the Pixelfed codebase with Stripe/PayPal or it will be manually managed by admins with admins-only API for storage quotas like in PeerTube right now?

  @dansup suppose that the admin lose the data. Will it be easy for users to request refund?

  @dansup I appreciate you for thinking of ways to help monetize fediverse services.
  I'd definitely prefer that anyone can still provide it instead of a solution that depends on an organization. Maybe where you send your backups could be a separate choice from the instance and there could be multiple providers if one doesn't want to tie it to the instance itself.
  Also makes me think of Firefox Sync and how that's available to be self-hosted instead of Mozilla.
