Ouch
Do you have any non-profit support organizations, local to where you have your accounts, that might be able to help for cheap or pro-bono?
Thank you for all the work you do!
Thank you for doing a patreon! Signed up for $2 a month, its not much, but if I know me, ill never cancel it. Its so easy everybody, go sign up for a couple bucks a month!
Same. I'm a wagie and need to be careful of my spend, but this is a good set and forget.
The way a lot of people responded to a thread about struggling financially, i think there's a lot of lemmys on here who could definitely afford to pitch in.
Small amounts add up too!
I'd be nice if supporters got a little badge or something. But, maybe that's not the Fediverse way.
Just sent $25 (€?)
I’ll chip in some monies. I also have a metric ton of fucks to give, any particular place to put them? Barely used, fine quality.
Edit: LW team, you are now free to wallow in the pool of monthly donation euros I have just set up.
Quality participation with comments and/or good posts helps the community grow. Reporting rule-breaking content helps mods and admins keep the community growing as well. So monies and fucks are appreciated. er, wait, lemme rephraase that
OMG, narc.
Right here, officer. This person said "fuck" ok the Internet and memes have taught me this is NOT ok!
USER WAS BANNED FOR THIS POST
Y'all, everyone should donate. I was totally for real banned, and literally just unbanned myself via bribes. It turns out that if you bribe @[email protected], they'll let you say "fuck" as many times as you want on the internet!
Seriously, try it out! Make a "donation" and then see if it worked by replying with the word fuck. I think it's actually the law that the internet admins have to let you say "fuck" if you publicly bribe them.
Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck. See? Totally un-fucking-banned. Pic for proof.
LOL! My intended joke was that in some places, that message would appear on the item that was banned, i.e. my joke was that I was banned.
That said, I like your reply, so I'm gonna go with it. <3
Too many fucks though ruins the joy of fuck. Keep fuck special.
Thank you for your most valuable service!
Thank you <3
And to everyone else as I won't reply to everyone so as not to spam up the thread :)
It's not much but I gave €10, keep up what you do because it's my first day and I already don't want this place to go
I always feel self conscious sending small amounts, but then I think "maybe that's what stops a lot of people from giving any" because an entire crowd that feels awkward not giving more than 20 actually amounts to a lot
So, don't even sweat it! Give any amount
10€ is a perfectly fine amount. Also, welcome!
Yes, not only is your donation appreciated, but posting about it shows others that they can. Before I was an admin, it was a thread like this with people posting that they were donating that reassured me into making a small monthly recurring donation, so comments like yours are appreciated. <3
Defederate from the tankie bullshit and I’ll absolutely pitch in. But until then, I’m not paying to have a bunch of kids shit all over every discussion had.
You should share that on Twitter and Facebook.
Ahh yes with my account... that I have.. on those places...
Fine. Share it on porn hub /s
If you share it on Pornhub, the message won't reach Australians

wtf Wow, who's crazy to share this on sites like this?
That's more the fault of the payment processor than the LW team. Often you can't change stuff like that
I setup a liberapay at the end of last year for a small recurring donation every 3 months ( since it was a smaller amount they had me do it quarterly instead ). If you contimue to use it regularly and can afford to throw them a cup of coffee's donation monthly, think about signing up.
I will donate my only upvote.
On it's way
5$ a month. I was just thinking about how I'd never pay for any kind of reddit anything. But this doesn't feel all hurty in my soul. Ty for making a space that's not hyper capitalist.
Can't do monthly but done'ed a one off!
Will do more one day once local morale improves etc.
