I'm assuming this is about the possible enshittification of Lemmy? I'm not too sure if such a thing is possible - right now at least
There's no ads, devs are supported by OSS funding (NLNet) and a Patreon, and many of the instances accept donations in one way or another to keep the servers running. It's also defederated so you could just host your own Lemmy and interact with everyone else that way
Ohh I just noticed you're on Kbin - not too familiar with the funding for that but it looks like the developer was provided a grant from NLNet as well.
