How do you expect your instance to cover its costs, then?
The same way they are covered now.
Turns out you're actually the owner of your home instance. I didn't know that when I made my previous comments.
I'm guessing you're currently paying for your instance's upkeep out of pocket? I can't spot any donation links on your instance. This might work for you personally, but do you really expect other, larger instances to do the same? Even donations are only rarely sustainable.
