Just curious as this is all fun and open till it scales to expensive. What is the lemmy.ca plan to sustain / fund it self?

Constant donation nagging like Wikipedia?

What does "federated" mean? I've seen the word everywhere but with no explanation.

It means there’s a bunch of different instances and they can share stuff with each other. Here’s the best explanation I’ve seen so far (it has some extraneous info tho) https://lemmy.world/post/149743
