MODERATORS
I don't think paying will solve anything. Some genius will one day just think "but what if we just charged more. But what if we made our service worse so they pay more to restore it. But what if we just merge with even shittier people so they can do all this shitty stuff."
It's never enough, it will never be enough. It's self hosted and open source or barbarism.
