  Right now, venture capital investments - same as all tech starts out.

  How it’ll monetize to become self-sufficient remains to be seen.

    Not same as “all tech starts out”. You’re literally typing on tech stack that didn’t start out like that. Then there’s Masotodon, fediverse, gnome, kde, linux etc. Etc. - literally almost no good software comes out of VC world statically speaking.

    I just saw a group is going to start doing custom feeds with ads inserted. I blocked the account and every single sucker who comes in to say congrats and how excited they are about it. Fuck the lot of them. That said, that’s a third party, but also an example of what they could do.
