Attached: 1 image #SpaceHost is now giving money to the #Lemmy developers on a monthly basis. If someone hosts a #Lemmy instance with #SpaceHost — #SpaceHost will give a portion of the net revenue to the Lemmy developers on an ongoing basis. As more people host Lemmy servers with #SpaceHost , the amount we will be able to give to the Lemmy developers will increase. ( #SpaceHost will do the same for every other open-source Fediverse software we host, too.) https://spacehost.one/ #SpaceHostBTS .

The platform/service is still in beta and opening up invites to its first users now.

The main developer is on mastodon: https://mastodon.social/@reiver

Their webpage if you want to signup for early access: https://spacehost.live/

From what I’ve gathered, they intend to support a variety of fediverse platforms, but have started with lemmy with kbin close behind.

    Just as a heads up, anarchism doesn’t preclude monetization. Co-ops are anarchist alternatives to corporations and already exist in many of the more progressive areas of the US today. The principle is just to remove unjust hierarchies, and you can still do that as much as possible while living under capitalism. Sure maybe some have founded some anarchist commune and live completely cash free, but I think the majority are just trying to flatten the hierarchies as much as is reasonable, and acknowledge the necessity of money in our current society.

    As an anecdote, I’m pretty far left myself and will regularly read and participate in anarchist communities, but am totally okay with people trying to earn money in an as fair and ethical way as is reasonable in our current society.
