Can’t a corporation just enter the space whenever they want to? Can’t they start or even buy out larger instances? Even if Lemmy does take off, wouldn’t this inevitably happen anyway if the space gets popular enough?

    I do agree, but at this point most residential connections are probably behind CGNAT so wouldn’t even have a public IP associated with just their connection anymore. You can always buy a business line and have them connect it up to your home. I think that would also give you a non residential IP?

    • I am hosting this server behind a dynamic ipb6 address, which a script send to the cloudflare api every time it changes

      As long as you have a DSLite ipv6 non-nat address, you can be on the web - with compromises xD

      My parents are still behind a dynamic ipv4, which is not behind a NAT
