Well there are 49 subscribed people on patreon totaling $170/month. Lots of people probably already have accounts set up which makes it a very low threshold to join.

Meanwhile on librepay, arguably more philosophically suitable, there are 11 subscribers totaling $13/month.

Man, considering how many people I have seen saying how great it is to be able to pay, and asserting they are making donations, those are very low numbers.

how is paying people going to "keep them profit oriented til profits arrive"?

how could they even have the cashflow to support that? money isn't free anymore

I don't know if anyone here has anything as constructive as what they should have done, having reached this point in history. If I was suddenly dropped into spez's body, I do not have a clue what I would do other than completely back track the past 2 months and eat a literal hat with a fork and knife. Don't know if even that would work.

I really appreciate your work!

I would really like the option to choose between multiple instances (even accounts on same instance??), which I think is the very last line of your post. :)

On reddit I was very grateful to the RES account switcher, and mobile app that let you easily switch accounts. I would probably never have actually gotten into reddit without those. It let me use completely different parts of reddit to express and explore different interests I think one of the things that made reddit the best social media platform was how pseudonymous it was. Total opposite of facebook "real name policy" attitude.

In the lemmy/kbin situation I am not sure how the interface would be. Need 1) some kind of persistent switching interface, 2) reminders of what account you are in. In RES it showed you your account name at the top of the page in the selector, and optionally above every comment box so you didn't accidentally post as the wrong account.

In the meantime I guess I will eventually install every available extension that does this and assign each one an account lol. Or pick one and make several local forks and install separately. hmm

You might have better luck posting the kbin link to this kbin community. it is https://kbin.social/m/snoocalypse@lemmy.ml/t/183970/Loss-of-niche-and-technical-information
