    Exactly, I don’t think we really have any say in whether that happens.

    Those channels are just random people trying to monetize content people post for free. Considering that, I personally hope we don’t see any of those channels pop up for lemmy, because I feel like the entire point of lemmy is to move away from monetizing the internet, so if people start monetizing content on here, I feel like it could influence the type or quality of content posted, and then we just become another reddit.

    and i feel like lemmy could be a better place than reddit. but not if monetization starts creeping in.
