We're very happy to say that we just put out our second round of project donations. This time around, both @elementary and @letsencrypt received $100 each.
You can read more about it here:

@wowaname if people stopped using software everytime a significant vulnerability was discovered, no-one would be using any software.
Whilst I wouldn't use CloudFlare personally, I wouldn't hold it against another company, especially when they want a quick and simple way of securing their infra.
@wowaname can't please everyone...
Over the past 6 months or so, a few members have asked us if we accept donations via #Liberapay.
We moved away from them because they were having issues; it looks like those issues are now fixed (we hope). So we’re happy to announce that Fosstodon is now accepting Liberapay donations again. 😁
We have been asked about the longevity of Fosstodon, especially since a number of key instances have gone.
Hopefully this post will allay any concerns. TL;DR - we got your back!
There's a few hours left for you to submit an Open Source project that you think we should donate to.
@mammalegcooker don't understand the question?
@SilverEagle
Yes, anyone with a Fosstodon account can submit a project, and Fosstodon's Patreons make the final vote.
We have launched the survey for our second round of donations - this time we will be donating $100 to 2 separate open source projects.
We've managed to improve the submission process this time around by using @LimeSurvey.
Please do take the time to add a submission if you get a couple of minutes. The list will then be sent to our Patrons for the final vote.

So we have been balancing the books and we currently have over $500 in our Paypal account.
HOW AWESOME ARE YOU GUYS!!!
That means another donation is on its way to another project. We're thinking either a single donation of $200 to a project, or two donations of $100 to two separate projects.
Since this cash came from our amazing community, we want you guys to decide. Please use the poll below to cast your vote.

Just a quick reminder, folks. We still have some Fosstodon stickers left. This may be a one time deal, so get them whilst they're still going!

@squire we don’t. Just PayPal and Patreon.
IMPORANT ANNOUNCEMENT:
At approximately 13:00 BST (08:00 Eastern) tomorrow, Tuesday 16th, we will be doing a database migration that will result in around 30 minutes of downtime.
If you want to support #Fosstodon, we still have some #stickers available for purchase from the Hub:
@badrihippo maybe we need to plug it more. :-)
The timeline is all thanks to @codesections
