        You’re self hosting: no qualms with that.

        The most populous server is mostly full of people freeloading. They’re the same types who torrent without seeding.

        It’s usually not that big a deal as long as the server has some people chipping in for upkeep but no matter how you slice it: if your account is on a server you’re either contributing to upkeep or leeching off the donations of others.

        Self hosters arent leeching: they’re participating in the decentralization.

        With federation servers cache content from each other and then serve it to their users. If you have a ton of users you’re using a ton of bandwidth. Simple as.

      I’m not just bad, I’m evil for not giving my money to something someone told me to give my money to. I also don’t donate money at the register and I don’t do volunteer work. Fucking hang me!
