Why are people saying that Lemmy is free of corporate interest?

Can’t a corporation just enter the space whenever they want to? Can’t they start or even buy out larger instances? Even if Lemmy does take off, wouldn’t this inevitably happen anyway if the space gets popular enough?

A VPS is rented

Thats like not understanding why people own a home I mean yah i coul get a static ip i guess that would actually make sense

It's not the same as owning a home. Also you can put your own hardware on premises or rent a static IP address. All of your arguments are nothing but ignorance.
