True, but the amount of instances will probably scale too. You can have premium instances that cost a monthly fee, ones that solicit donations, maybe ones that run ads. But you’ll also always have the passion project instances being ran for a specific community out of the kindness of someone’s heart.
I wouldn’t say that’s a problem, far from it.

The logical answer would be for more people to host their own instances in a similar ratio to present.
There’s a lot of work going into making instances easier to set up, too, so I think this will be possible.
