Ten bucks a month from day 1, it's what Reddit decided my service price was, and while I know that is inflated at least 10x, I'd rather support myself and ten other users than give spez a radioactive dime from my own pocket.

You know, you probably shouldn't keep radioactive dimes in your pocket.

[-] ikapoz@sh.itjust.works 13 points 10 months ago

Probably shouldn’t keep them at all, pockets or no pockets.

$5/mo to them plus running a (small) instance mostly on my own dime!

Community funding is the only way to fight commercialization of the fediverse!

[-] carbonprop@lemmy.ca 29 points 10 months ago

Thanks for reminding me to set this up. I’m now supporting my server.

This post gave me the initiative to finally donate! 🫡

[-] i_stole_ur_taco@lemmy.ca 9 points 10 months ago

Same! I’ve been a lazy, well-meaning ass about it for months but this was the little nudge I needed.

Yeah... I'd rather donate to my instance when that becomes available.

Tankies

Edit: Honestly now that I look at the site linked... I just have no idea what this site is or who I'd be donating to. I've never seen that website before.

[-] NENathaniel@lemmy.ca 11 points 10 months ago

Respect. I'm hoping donations for my instance open soon too

[-] c0mbatbag3l@lemmy.world 8 points 10 months ago

Zoidsberg? He gives. You gotta give!

[-] 2deck@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago

HOLD THAT DOOR! HOLD THAT DOOR!!!

[-] DmMacniel@feddit.de 8 points 10 months ago

I'm doing my part!

[-] Slartibartfass@feddit.de 7 points 10 months ago

Keep up the great work!

[-] RookieNerd@hachyderm.io 6 points 10 months ago

@Zoidsberg yes! 1€ per week

[-] Jaysyn@kbin.social 4 points 10 months ago

I'm a Kbin Patreon.

[-] kirby@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 10 months ago

Is that the official term for kbin users?

[-] can@sh.itjust.works 5 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

I've been saying kbinauts but idk what they prefer.

Fuck giving money. Plus, did you realise the amount of people who are giving money to Lemmy as opposed to Reddit just to spite Reddit? It's like putting money in the meat grinder. Literally no purpose.

Lemmy will never catch up to Reddit. And it's self-hosted, so there's literally 0 point to donations. Stop being irrational.
