It's nice, but keep in mind that it's largely unsustainable without some form of revenue. Reddit didn't turn evil just because of a bunch of shareholders, it went that way because the money was drying up and they weren't making any money. They're still not making money.
As lemmy grows and server costs increase, especially for the larger instances, more will be asked of the community to help foot the bill. This current server has a good breakdown in costs for those curious and while it doesn't seem like a lot today, it'll start to jump quite considerably as you hit certain thresholds on database sizes and whatnot. If you like this server, please by the admin a coffee to say thank you :)
