A reminder in the age of the Fediverse: if you're not the customer, you're still the product.

OP was taking about Tumblr, but I think it applies even more to the Fediverse: users need to develop an ethos of paying to support the sites they use. Otherwise advertisers pay the bills and call the shots.
itd be nice if the usa had a public free hosting service that was paid for by a 25 or 50 dollar flat tax.
Flat taxes are regressive and a really, really, really bad idea. We have too many of them as it is.
