It seems like you want yo choose how you are seen and have a eorld that includes others but has no room for them to take any agency. You’re big on concept that things are owned.
I believe my work should remain my own, and I should have the freedom to choose who I associate with. The only way to guarantee that—both practically and legally—is by covering the cost of the server myself.
And you absolutely have your own agency as well. It just means you may need to exercise it in a space that’s a better fit for you.
Im not saying you need to associate with anyone in particular, im saying you might be saying that to paper over some seriously fucked/unhealthy attitudes towards what people are amd what you want from them. They’re not toys. You can curate, but even the closest collaborators will have differences that need resolving. Saying that rwsolution must always fit uour exact vision if even a small part of the world is pretty fuvked up.

Generally speaking, I get along with people just fine. But I also believe you need to have principles. Without them, what do you really stand for?
What does standing for anything have to do with this?
