I’m guessing you haven’t been on the #Fediverse very long so not picked up on the ethos of most of the folk who run the various instances.
Most are very protective of what they have created as a community and are definitely not in it for the money. Some are vehemently anti-capitalist.
There are many ways to get rich. Running an instance is not one of them.
Words are cheap though. Not casting aspersions on anyone in particular, but hypocrisy is a common human characteristic. Greed has a way of bending people’s principles when a real world opportunity presents itself.
