Reddit gold was such a great method of voluntary monetization. It'd be great if Lemmy would support something like that (although there are a ton of caveats.)
I had a $30/year subscription to Reddit for more than a decade.

Would any form of crypto donations be interesting as well? Personally a great fan of Monero.
Our Monero address is 83tnuFN4f28jRxTBW9qGDad2U23qNE5nfeW4Pfyd85oWMW7J9gqpXi3S8FDbX5uEeCAKcGnSpS2XT5dGwYiELthg8XuDrxH
Please add the crypto addresses to the site sidebar under donations. You also may want to consider accepting BTC, BCH and LTC. Glad your accepting XMR though for private donations.
Awesome!
How are you covering cash into crypto without paying bonkers fees? I tried to do it via coinbase and the fees are insane. Fuck that.
You can use exchanges like Coinbase Advanced Trading and Kraken Pro to interact directly with the order book. They use the standard maker/taker model. 0.6% for takers on Coinbase Advanced Trading and 0.26% for takers on Kraken Pro. You can use "market" orders if all you want is a buy button and a sell button
Is there tutorials for this somewhere?
I have used https://localmonero.co/ in the past.
Which one of the platforms do you all get more money? I want to donate but I know each of the services get a cut.
Ko-Fi or PayPal directly, or crypto
Thanks for running this. I donated as long as i was able to, but had to stop recently due to my personal financial situation.
Hm, we are missing the "reporting for duty" emoji.
🫡 Thanks for the donation!
o7 is always there, no emojis needed

Are there any plans to use Liberapay? All of the donation platforms above don't support my home currency while Liberapay does
I added a Liberapay link: https://liberapay.com/fhf/
Thanks! Unfortunately it's still only accepting donations in Euro
We will look into adding the donation platform.
If there is nothing that blocks us then we will add it.
Thanks!
Is there any preference for y’all on Opencollective vs Patreon? I would us Ko-Fi but not in a place right now to do $5/month, and that seems to be the minimum.
Ohh I didn't know there was a minimum setting in Ko-Fi. I changed the minimum there to 1. Thanks!
Ooo fantastic, I’ll switch over to Ko-Fi!
Hmm. Why does Lemmy mess up the links...
Just donated. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Thanks!!
Cant donate today but will soon. Is there any info on current funding levels/cost to run/goals trying to be reached?
We keep that at https://blog.mastodon.world (I know, I'm behind with that...)
Happy to donate a little bit!
Does lemmy not get its money from the trevi fountain?
The Ko-Fi link seems to be broken.
Yeah almost all links were broken, not sure how. I edited them, saved and they were broken again... For now it seems it's fixed.
