This is a very interesting article about the long-term sustainability of the Fediverse for moderators, administrators, and developers. We've already had two of our lovely Beehaw admins take breaks to take care of themselves as they experience the burnout associated with maintaining a community, and I think for a lot of use we already know how exhausting it can be to take a center stage position in an online community.

Unfortunately, I don't have any great starting points for what to do, but at least talking about it is a start.

Capitalism is shit. We're brainwashed to believe that there's only so much and we have to get as much as can and before everyone else, damn the cost, even if it's our mental health. I don't understand how we can't look at it from the other angle and say, if there's only so much, let's protect it. Let's share what we have so everyone can have fun. Let's care about everyone and lift everyone up.

No! That's communism and we can't have that!
