The worldviews are too different. It makes no sense to make this distinction about "beneficial to companies" and "beneficial to communities" and it actually seems to me like a misunderstanding of why corporations exist in the first place.

Also, sorry if this is harsh, but you are repeatedly showing an inability of abstract thinking. I talk about the Japanese and your reaction is to ask "where is the Japanese Reddit"? Really? Are you expecting that different cultures will converge to the exact type of equivalent artifacts, just with different colors?

(Anyway, I'd posit that the "Japanese Reddit" is misskey, but I already dread the thought you will respond with some silly pontification about how misskey looks more like Twitter than Reddit)

Maybe it is time for to cut my losses and accept that this whole discussion is a waste of time.

Which is correct. Misskey doesn't have subreddit/Lemmy communities, it's a microblogging format.

Edit : still no example of an open-source project where end users countered the “tragedy of the commons”.

Trust me, bro. I am not moving the goal posts, bro. All I need is one example that fits exactly what I want so that I can bring myself to contribute with a few dollars per month. No, paying a small business provider that can reinvest the resources to keep the ecosystem open is not the same, bro... If "the commons" don't help, why should I, bro...

Excuses and poor rationalizations .
