Don't know what the exact cause was/is for this big surge - but I am glad to see it. No matter what personal problems people may have with the main devs, they are doing great work on the platform.

Also of interest, since this is a good place to plug things, other threadiverse things:

And I couldn't find a way to donate to mbin, in lieu of that:

EDIT: The creator of mbin gave a link in the comments: https://melroy.org/donate.html

A screenshot of two bar graphs showing the history of donations and patrons of Lemmy on Liberapay. Both show a sharp increase for the end of April and beginning of May, to USD 480 per week from 371 people at the time of the screenshot.

Weird how if you are an asshole to your users it makes them into enemies.

I joined Lemmy with every intention to contribute and make a significant donation as well. But after getting banned and dogpiled for daring to say things like "Russia shot down a civilian airplane" and "the ML theory you are referencing does say what you claim it says," I'm also here to say the fediverse will be better without cringe keyboard warriors like Dessalines and transphobes like Nutomic being involved with it. There are other projects to support.
