I think now is a great time to remind everyone, like sync's developer, Lemmy's developers need to be paid too! The amount of time all the devs put into making lemmy exist, in my opinion, should be worth some of your money. If you can afford it, donating to the people who develop lemmy and/or the people keeping your home instance up will accelerate the incredible growth of lemmy!

They might contribute to an existing instance sure, but I doubt they'd host. There's no real financial incentive for the profit driven to host a Lemmy instance unless they charge for membership and I doubt even Sync users are naive enough to pay twice for something.

Lemmy.ml is og instance hosted by lemmy devs

Who shutdown sign ups during the influx cause they couldn't handle it. So don't expect it to last if all the other instances fail.

Fair enough. That is what I meant for the record. It's just a business cost at that point.
