Anyone else getting these donation ads? Was it just shoved onto an update by the Lemmy devs, or is this coming from the instance admins? It doesn't seem to show on clean browser sessions to lemmy.ca

If a majority of an audience wants something, then they can fork. That’s how open source works.

Yes, they can run their own. But obviously people will pressure an instance that is used more than instances that are not. In terms of lemmy, the public policy of lemmy.world is up for more litigation than lemmy.today. Same goes with piefed.social.

But in any case, your argument is still not criticism of piefed - but purely piefed.social.
