There are plenty of free things on the Internet. You're commenting on a free social network.

I pay $100/month for internet access.

Lemmy may be free to access, but certainly not free to host. Am I paying for it personally? No, but someone is.

You also don't see Lemmy paying hundreds of YouTubers and influencers for ad spots.

Wow, internet is expensive where you are. I pay £28 (about $35) a month for 1gig up/down in the UK.

internet in the states and canada can be so expensive :( i’m lucky that my provider has a program for ppl on disability where we pay $10-$20 CAD/mo. I can’t remember the exact amount, nor what up/down we get right now, but it’s pretty decent!
