First up.. this is not a call for donations.

Without going into the personal details as to why: I don't have the energy to give this place the attention it needs, and I'm no longer willing to cover the majority of running costs.

I don't have a fully fledged solution to this, and don't have the energy to come up with one. The best I can come up with is I hand the reins over to Nath, and some sort of community funding is set up to cover costs.

If anyone knows of above board methods to establish a crowd funded piggy bank for something like this, I'm all ears.

Thank you lodian for the impressive work at making such a seamless experience and Nath for being top admin and having their back.

I'm keen to donate to help cover costs but in my situation I can only provide fairly sporadic financial help.

I also fully agree with the notion of regular financial updates of where the community is at along with gentle reminders to donate. Particularly for people in my financial situation who have more sporadic financial freedom.
