My question to the forum is with a decentralised social media platform that is not owned by a large corporation, how much would one be prepared to pay to use it, knowing that your privacy, security and autonomy is protected.
Would you be prepared for example to pay £1/$1/1euro per month knowing that there are no adverts and no onward selling of your personal data?

The moment you have 100 million users that pay you 1$ a month, what makes you?
My hunch is on a large corporation that owns the platform, can hike prices at any time, can go bankrupt and run the platform into the ground or, that could still behind all the publicity still sell our data! Not only you plan on unloading all the costs on the people, by having them pay for your network and storage but you also plan on charging them.
This sounds like all those private tracker business models, you do all the work and if you're unable to keep your ratio we might consider a "donation" so you can keep being a member of our community and work for us!
Sorry but when the first thing is about how much are we willing to pay and not about what you offer, I can see where this is going!
