$5/mo to them plus running a (small) instance mostly on my own dime!

Community funding is the only way to fight commercialization of the fediverse!

Thanks for reminding me to set this up. I’m now supporting my server.

This post gave me the initiative to finally donate! 🫡

Same! I’ve been a lazy, well-meaning ass about it for months but this was the little nudge I needed.

Just did my part. Thanks for the link and letting me know this was a thing!

Is that the official term for kbin users?

Fuck giving money. Plus, did you realise the amount of people who are giving money to Lemmy as opposed to Reddit just to spite Reddit? It's like putting money in the meat grinder. Literally no purpose.

Lemmy will never catch up to Reddit. And it's self-hosted, so there's literally 0 point to donations. Stop being irrational.
