One more reason to argue that we should drop the idea of “aligned” servers and that we are moving to a future where it is better to charge (small) amounts from everyone instead of depending on (large)/donations from a few.

Ideally, a distributed fediverse wouldn't need much in terms of donations because it's a bunch of small instances instead of a few huge ones.

Not the point. The point that if instances that are open for everyone will be open for bad actors as well.
If the mere act of signing up to an instance requires a small payment, you are automatically preventing the absolute majority of spammers, “spray and pray” spammers and channer trolls.
