Olive oil can give a little bit of a bitter taste. However, if you don't use a lot of it, it shouldn't be a problem and would generally be the better choice over the butter.
I mean, butter from animal products would be even worse than the vegan version - but that doesn't make the vegan version healthy in any way.
However, I would always default to vegan alternatives, as living and feeling animals are not exploited in the process of making them. And when I can make dishes vegan and more nutrient dense and tasty by using whole food ingredients, it's a win-win for me. 😇
But as a short PSA: If you really have high cholesterol, this dish might not be the optimal as the vegan butter and sour cream are high in fat - especially saturated fats. This might bring your cholesterol levels up.
If you really need to keep an eye on your cholesterol levels, try not to overdo it with fats in your diet and minimize saturated fats - which are often found in "solid fats" like coconut or palm oil (or any fat derived from an animal source).
You could adapt the recipe quite easily by using a small amount of olive oil to saute the onions & mushrooms. Or you could even go zero-fat by "water sautéing" your ingredients.
The sour cream can be swapped with a "cashew-soymilk-sauce" quite easily. Still has some fat but more on the healty side. And cashews bring a lot of other health nutrients - in contrast to the sour creams.
That these things in you plate were once feeling, breathing, loving and dreaming individuals. We don't have the right to exploit and kill them, just because we can.
This would incentivise instances to keep growing, as more users would potentially mean more income. I don't think that this is a good idea as it conflicts the decentralized nature of the fediverse.
I would suggest that we promote donations more. Seriously, nobody is talking about that stuff.
Furthermore, "money" doesn't always fix a communities infrastructure issues - people do. Most of the time, admins are a one-person-army. If people would take over work (like moderation, implementing helpful features in code, ...) more often, that might help out the admins more than just throwing money at them.
It is the same as with a lot of open source communities: It's not all about the money, it's about people getting active and involved and helping each other out.
Definitely NOT writefreely. It is a nice tool, if you want to have a minimalistic blog others on the fediverse can follow, but it is extremly bad at interacting with literally anything, yet. (This might change in the future, but at the moment, WF is not really made for your use case.)
That is kind an off logic. Sounds more like an excuse for not taking action than anything else. I bet you can dismantle your arguments on your own in no time of you try.

Yeah, but what should that even mean?
