    I run an open instance for everyone. The name (FOSSware) suggests that it’s for people interested in FOSS (free and open source software) only, but in the description, I specifically mentioned that it’s an open instance for everyone, just like with lemmy.world and other popular instances.

    I’m running this instance, because I love technology and I’m hosting a lot of stuff for my family, friends and I, as well as some public facing things already. It’s a hobby.

    Another reason why I’m doing it is that I just want to give back to the community, as I strongly believe that decentralized tech is the future. We were proven time and time again that centralized approaches, where only one entity is in control, is really bad for the userbase.

      And the economy, whatever form that economy may be. Content and comment economies online, or the financial one in real life.
