MODERATORS
This is very true, but there's still going to be some large instances and some small instances and the large ones will have to deal with it at some point. It's not the end of the world or anything, there's a myriad of ways of dealing with it but I would expect some of the larger instances to end up with some pretty hefty bills that'll need paying. Hopefully the communities on those instances will help, but if not then we might start seeing ads appearing or sponsored content or whatever.
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.
