      No. But focusing on supporting one single app instead of the platform is not sustainable for the platform. This meme is just a reminder to support the platform as well.

          My opinion is that what matters is how much money each part of the network receives.

          For example, instances tend to be transparent about their funding. And we can see that some of them are just months away of being out of cash. Meanwhile, we see people subscribing(!) to a very expensive app that charges $20 to remove ads (and tracking and data collecting) otherwise.

          I think is okay to keep people aware of these things. Getting defensive about it is just a waste of energy. For both sides.
