Something of an earnest post. I realised this morning that I value fosstodon at least as much as I value, say, my netflix subscription. It brings me so much joy to have an ad-free, community-run social media space for open source folks, and it matters to me that it remains sustainable. So I decided that, since I can afford it, I'd make a monthly contribution to help #FundFosstodon. (You can check out the support page if you want and are able to donate)

I just donated to #fundfosstodon

Honestly, I think that there is no harm in getting a couple of corporate sponsors for @fosstodon .

I don't mind seeing a banner "Sponsored by ..." in the UI or something like that as long as this makes Fosstodon float and allows compensating moderators and admins for their work.

I just became a Patreon member to support Fosstodon. Happy Thanksgiving everyone. This is a great community!

I've gotten so much value from fosstodon.org in the short time I've been here. This is a no brainer: https://hub.fosstodon.org/more-upgrades-twitter-storm/

You may have noticed there's no ads here. A typical mastodont instance doesn't derive income from its users, but as we all jumped to mastodon from twitter costs have risen substantially for them. Please consider becoming a donor to your instance. For fosstodon have a look at: https://hub.fosstodon.org/more-upgrades-twitter-storm/ #FundFosstodon

Current monthly operating costs for Fosstodon are $2,105. There are almost 50,000 people in total on the server, of which nearly 30,000 are active.

If every user donated $1, it would fund the instance for nearly 2 years. If every active user donated $1, it would fund the instance for more than 1 year.

Roughly, no more than 5% of the total users need to chip in at least $1 a month to keep the instance running. If you're able to, consider helping #FundFosstodon. Any amount makes a difference.

Excellent work from the #Fosstodon team on managing a 6x increase in membership. I'd much rather give you guys money for infrastructure than subsidise Melon's failed advertising venture #FundFosstodon

#FundFosstodon donation well deserved and sent!

Fosstodon is by far the most popular Mastodon instance handling #rstats toots! . . . at least according to my analysis of posts over the last 7 days.
It's also seen a 6-fold increase in users and a MASSIVE jump in hosting costs. @fosstodon users who are able: We can help our overworked volunteers & moderators starting at $1 (US) per month!

I decided to contribute to #FundFosstodon -- Long live #fosstodon !

Loving my time on Fosstodon and have been using it a lot, so it's time to do my bit and help keep the lights on.

With that in mind, I just set up a monthly Patreon to #FundFosstodon

Check out the following link if you'd like to do the same.

As of today, I'm a donor to @fosstodon. If you are here because you understand the importance of open software, hopefully you also understand that there's nothing ever really free and sustaining a platform (or a Fediverse instance in this case) is just as important.

Consider also becoming a donor to the project so that we can continue to thrive: https://hub.fosstodon.org/more-upgrades-twitter-storm/ #FundFosstodon

If you happen to have a blue checkmark on ‘that one website’ and an account on @fosstodon, I’ve got bad news for you: You’re not spending your money right.

Elon doesn’t need any more money than he already has. #FundFosstodon instead!
