Lemmy 2023-10-31 news post, section Funding Drive:

Before the Reddit migration, our income was almost exclusively made up of generous donations from the NLnet foundation. This funding was based on getting paid for implementing new features, specified in advance.

There seem to be considerable recurring donations now too. (Donations page, section Sponsors.)

If you mean "considerable" as in barely above minimum wage, sure... it's either a job or a hobby and if it is a job you need to compare it with what they could earn as software developers elsewhere.

Multiple hundreds is considerable to me and beyond "hobby". It doesn't have to be a full time job or fairly compensated to be more than a hobby.

1.5 k has to be considered in my eyes. It's not negligible or marginal as donations. (Note I labeled donations considerable, not their income - which I don't know. My point was that it's worth mentioning.)
