Have you been contributing and participating in some of the content discussions in the Fediverse? I found that I was a consumer and just came to Reddit to read stuff. But with Lemmy I'm far more interactive.

Cool idea on having a public board, similar to the modlog. Perhaps that idea should be suggested to the Lemmy devs if it is important to you: LemmyNet Issues board: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues/

While I'm not sure about the information for your instance, lemmy.ca, I'm with lemmy.world for now. Lemmy.world is hosted by the same people who run mastodon.world.

Lemmy.world posts a blog update that outlines their hardware and financial costs.

"The current VPS couldn't be resized that much anymore, and load was going up with all the new users. So I bought the same server at Hetzner: a 32-core/64 thread 128GB RAM dedicated server."

"May / Expenses / Mail: EUR 32,52 / Hetzner (server etc): EUR 424,34 / Storage: EUR 75,69"
