Also, if you're already in the Fediverse, consider donating to the admin of the instance you are using.
Those people are real heroes who use so much time of their lives to create a pleasant and working social media experience for us
Also servers do cost money and every cent matters
@KazuShuSora I already contribute to their Patreon each month. At the same rate as Musk was charging for whatever the premium Twitter thing is called, because it was funny.
@KazuShuSora rip me, I run this server all alone
But I also pay less than 15€ per year so it's not expensive at all tbh
@aliceif
At least that
@KazuShuSora I can only second this! tech.lgbt for example is fully funded by voluntary member donations. Knowing that the instance won't go away, regardless of the admins financial situation is comforting. This is especially important for instances that end up somewhat big on accident and dont have any funding(for example a preexisting non profit) behind them.
