If the fediverse is going to be a decentralized, non-commercial network, and it works properly, I'm willing to contribute some share, as long as there's transparency about the costs and the budget. Do we have access about this information for any instance in general, or for @world in particular?

Edit: Well I found it for @world: Enter https://opencollective.com/mastodonworld , then click on Budget.

I really like it so far and I love that it theoretically avoids the problems we had with reddit ever arising in the future. I'm a bit worried it might be a bit too complicated for normal users. But I guess we'll have to see. I'm also a bit worried about it from a security perspective, what's stopping someone making a hostile instance or faking a lemmy instance to get people to click malicious links? They can be hosted on any website so you can't really know.
