Was just thinking how nice it is to be on social media and not be bombarded with ads!

Its amazing how this is the first site in years that I dont need to install blockers or scroll through bs or be so cynical with what I read.

Fellow Australians, rejoice in this little space we have from corporate bombardment

I would hope, like you say, those larger instances would naturally realize larger donations with the higher user volume.

But sure, each instance can make the choice to inject ads in their users’ feeds. Larger instances may have promos with companies like video game publishers or movie studios. But I think the natural infrastructure that the Fediverse provides, limits this from the crazy ad levels we see in today's failing mainstream, centralized social media companies.
