I think you have to make sure you make enough money from people that if all corporations left it wouldn't matter. Then they have no leverage.
Well, I think the key is to not go public and not take money from VC or other investors. Then you have pressure to grow. We can make a sustainable non-growing business that is employee-owned, non-profit, and/or a benefit corp like Kickstarter.
I think other than user subscription, you're going to struggle to have a revenue stream that will support your operating costs.
You would be surprised how cheap the computers are. Operating cost will only be a problem once we have employees and have to start paying taxes and health care and such.
With good use of, say, AWS's back-end features, operating costs for something like this could be shockingly low. (Extremely high by human standards, but not by corporate ones). If designed well, you could support it on Patreon.
Also, target markets. Hate to say it, but I'd focus almost entirely on the English speaking world, with POPs just in North America and Europe. Likely just in the US/Canada to start even.

For real.
I'm not even joking.
Then do it.
Still need the seed money or the backing.
New Patreon goal?
You can't afford it. Also, good luck finding someone who will give seed money and expect nothing in return.
Twitter's stock is down, they're laying people off, and I notice in the last several weeks that they appear to have nearly doubled their ad push inventory.
Bad times ahead.
Bought at 15.086. Sold at $24.7. It was down near $15 within 2-3 days of selling. Boooooooom.

If you have the people, then you can charge the corps money AND ignore their needs.

Yeah I got lucky.
