Going to be a big moment in internet history, how we decide to handle this will shape how the internet is used and content is consumed for the next decade

We should ideally not reccomend a server and instead direct them to the launch page so that they can pick their own instance. This will allow us to balance the influx as well as put in safeguards against any instance owner ever pulling a u/spez

I remember reading a similar question regarding mastodon and the answer was that the code is open source, every instance, server, community can download a copy of it and customize their experience. The Kbin admin or anyone else does not own all the servers that host the vast number of instances. So even if they were to sell the already open source code, or threaten to pull the plug on the project, the code is available for everyone to just continue like nothing happened, and for the community to take over and develop it how they see fit.
