At the same time, #Mastodon is explicitly designed so that business models such as #Twitter's do not work. Advertising can't or shouldn't pay for the costs, like on other #SocialMedia.

Hope is pinned on companies and organizations setting up instances for their employees. Here the funding would be clear, but except for some industries with employees in the public eye - such as the press (like my emploeyer @heiseonline) - I see no reason why companies should do this on a large scale.
