The latest blog post about our .world and the Fedihosting Foundation. As you can read in the blog, the donations are no longer covering our running costs. If you are able to spare a few Euro's or dollars or whatever currency, please check the list of our donation platforms in the blog.

Edit: I will add these to the blog: https://bunq.me/fhf (for EU bank transfers) https://github.com/sponsors/Fedihosting-Foundation (Github Sponsor)

Isn’t that a .ml issue, not a .world issue?

Many lemmy communities give money to the devs

Okay, but what if a dev on .world is a tankie? Who can risk their money going towards a functioning community website if there's any chance someone I hate might cover rent and groceries?

[-] MrKaplan@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

they're referring to Lemmy developers, not someone using/running .world

The comment you replied to is sarcastic. We should support tne good work even though some of that support goes to people we don't like personally.

Did you not see the breakdown of where the money goes? These aren't being paid out to these people individually they're not getting paid a salary. They donate their time. All the money goes to the functioning of the Fediverse and .worlds.
