Who are these people that will fund a social network, with no expectations of a return on that investment, so that people can fill it up with memes and porn for free?
People that want there to be a platform they can enjoy using. There doesn't have to be a monetary gain for your life to be enriched by an investment you make. I mean, people make donations to wikipedia, how is that any different?
I've given money to both Wikipedia & Lichess on multiple occasions.
Gotta support these types of things. They are the shining gems of what is possible online.
Wikipedia seems to be a non profit and doesn't seem to be in the business of harvesting user data seems to be a difference, or constantly chasing after unlimited growth that leads to constant growing expenses due to expectations of shareholders that leads to focus on sustainability not being a priority.
Exactly, there is no reason a social media company has to be a for-profit business.
