Yes, each server has its own financing.
Genuine question: Why would anyone be inclined to host a server? Do they get anything out of it?
Could be a multitude of reasons. Some people just really enjoy sysadmin work, some maybe want to play around with the software. Places like Beehaw have a goal of creating what they consider to be an open and welcoming community. Some even have nefarious reasons for hosting (luckily we have defederation).
I just think it’s neat lmao
It’s not very expensive yet as I have under 100 users, if it gets more expensive I’ll ask for donations. If that doesn’t cover it, I’ll just stop letting new people register
