    Do you have crypto donation options? I checked all the posted payment providers above and didn't see any

    there is a post from 3 years ago with crypto donation addresses, are they still valid? https://lemmy.world/post/12531572

    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.

    Also, we had some unexpected extra costs (over 1000,–) when we had to pay taxes for the foundation (strange, for a non-profit..). I'll see if we can get an accountant to check this, but also accountants are costly..

    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!

    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

    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 @lwadmin@lemmy.world, 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

    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

    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

    Are you able to add anything between $10-$100 on Patreon?

    I'd be nice if supporters got a little badge or something. But, maybe that's not the Fediverse way.

    Yeah, I know, I know.

    I think of it as a way to prompt others to donate. "I donated, and you can too!", sort of thing. Like wearing an "I voted" sticker on election day.

    Unless just doing a sticky once in a while does the job, I suppose.

    Well my point is that it just seems that rewarding giving money seems to go against the intention of the Fediverse.

    People giving money because they want the social clout/status symbol, versus people that give because they want something cool to succeed. Y'know?

    Yeah, but fuck that. As long as you keep it small and near maintenance fees, it's fine.

    Too many people react to one extreme with the opposite extreme.

    Reddit gold was also a fine way to support Reddit, back when it deserved more support. Before they got greedy.

    I will donate my only upvote.

    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.
