If you have your own infrastructure to host all of these services then you're probably not the target audience. It's ok, it's my case too.
But you have to admit that $20/year is quite cheap for all of what is provided here, without having to manage it all yourself, and with a "no trackers no bullshit" way of doing things.
It's really the kind of services I don't need but would almost like to need! The last time I had this feeling was about Neocities :).
Yeah instead of paying this guy, people should instead rely on the charity of big corporations like microsoft. Github pages are free and surely will remain that way forever without any strings attached!

Anyone can start their own omg.lol with a $10/yr domain name, and charge others for OSS and basic features you can find elsewhere for free. It's a scam to those who criticize it, and it's a privileged club to those who pay the money.
But the social circle is polluted with brains who think this is a good deal, so it's not the kind of network I'd even want to be on.
