sub.club is an emergent new platform for paid subscriptions in the #Fediverse. It’s simple, smooth, and easy to use.

Fuck off.
Stop monetising everything, let us just enjoy our space without injecting business into it.
Some of the people in the space are tired of panhandling, and would like to actually get paid for things they do. This can include: covering monthly instance costs, selling subscriptions to premium articles for a newspaper, supporting a video creator on PeerTube, or donating to an open source project. A subscription system is one way of doing that.
And some of the people are tired of capitalism being injected into everything.
Why can we not just have a space where people can be people without monetising it?
I understand your sentiment, but you do realize that in the end someone has to pay to keep that space running, right?
I too wish for luxury gay space communism
Don’t forget fully automated!
If you’re that cheap, you can register on this instance. I can assure you the owner has zero interest in making you pay for using it.
Small communities being run and paid for by self owned admins is nothing new and with how cheap it all is these days is even less of an issue.
If you really need donations, there are a million ko-fi like services.
Seconded. Commercialism and monetizing everything is what caused the www to rot. We don’t need it here. Neoliberalism has already robbed generations of the right to simply exist or create without a profit motive, among other things, like literacy. Pretty sick of it.

Yeah that’s why I’m telling them to fuck off.

Sure it’s the people latching and trying to extract blood (money) from us the content creators.
If Lemmy or Reddit was simply a list of shared URLs without user interactions no one would use these sites.
The posters are the content, we are not your personal business platform, we are people wanting to engage with other people.

No one is demanding they work for us.
We’re demanding they don’t come here and demand money. If they don’t want to provide content for free like the rest of us, we don’t mind them not being here.

No one is demanding them full stop. If you want to make us pay, we don’t want you. That’s an un-demand.
I’m one voice of a community. As you can tell from many of the other posts in here, it seems to be a majority sentiment on the majority leftist Fediverse.
