@shrugdealer $frnk / https://liberapay.com/exposur.es !

i'm building #offgrid, #resilient digital #community gardens / #commons like wikis, messageboards, etc to maintain access to knowledge and #communication during #climate #disasters or #repression!

AND

i'm working on a big migration for exposur.es, a safe haven for #queer, #trans, #disabled #artists, #SWers, #SexEducators, and others who have been the vicitm of #censorship on platforms like #Meta's #Instagram and #Bluesky from #Pixelfed to #Bonfire!

any and all support keeps these efforts going & growing!

Liberapayexposur.es's profile - Liberapayexposur.es is a safe haven for artists to share their artwork unimpeded by censorship and liberated from exploitative corporations.
