Are there any paid services for either Lemmy or Mastodon? Something where, given it is a subscription service, you would expect them to stick around long-term?

You can disable communities on your instance as an admin, but you would need to disable uploading.

Would that allow someone to still post/upload on other communities? Honestly haven't looked into this at all. Was going to in a couple weeks when I have time to actually sit down and test

Commenting because I'm also interested

When I finally look into it I'll make sure to let you know. Are you going to selfhist yourself or just want to use it if I actually set it up? Maybe you can help me host it. Lol

If you let me know how to help you, then I'm in. I have a raspberry pi 4 and some external hard drives. That's it. But I also have some money and would rather help you than host a lonely instance, Mr skankhunt

I'll have to read about local laws and if I can get in trouble for what the users do/upload. I have no interest in dealing with legal shit... If I'm safe then I'll have to see how much people charge for storage these days. I don't really want to run it from my house and I don't have a lot of disposable income to run it out in the internet somewhere.

Has money but not enough money to leave their cage. Very sad
