I meant the instance admins are martyrs because they're doing high-stakes moderation for free and they receive only abuse in return. Pitting instance admins in a race-to-the-bottom competition where they have no hope of ever being compensated is inhumane.
This is the main reason why I refuse to open my instance and make it donation-based. I'd rather pay to have an over provisioned server for my 5 active users than having to deal with entitled "supporters" who think that their donation would give them with the right to judge me for everything I say or do.
