Let me phrase in another way: all of the admins teams of the instances above are different. They are all different teams, but I regularly interact with them, and they are all quite nice people to talk to. I even like talking to the LW sysadmins.
On the other hand, why would I host a community to one of your instances, when all you do is argue with me? We have different visions on the platform, and that’s fine. I don’t even get why you suggest one of instances, it seems a bad idea due to our regular disagreements.
My tone changed after you refused any form of collaboration and resorted to the most absurd excuses (like the football domain episode).
I wasn’t being hostile to you when you came asking if you could have access to the user votes. I thought it was something visible for moderators, but when you said that it was only for admins I even offered to host an instance for you for free. All you needed to do was get a domain name. You refused.
The football episode was when you revealed how much you were paying for all those domain names for the 20 instances, as well as the operating costs. Again, seemed like a risk to me. The domain itself wasn’t the actual reason, it was the risk of seeing you disappear overnight or having to cease operations due to cost.
I refused the free instance because I didn’t want to use your resources for something as minor as being able to see votes.
So? I never said I want to make money out of the instances.

And your tone now is pleasant and agreeable.

Now, it certainly isn’t.
What if I told you that Communick has reached break-even point, and since February it makes more in revenue than it costs to operate?
Oh, that’s right, I told you that already! It’s just that you didn’t react to it. Could it be because it doesn’t fit your worldview?
