Danielle Navarro<p>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 <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/FundFosstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>FundFosstodon</span></a>.

Niels V<p>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: <a href="https://hub.fosstodon.org/more-upgrades-twitter-storm/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">hub.fosstodon.org/more-upgrade</span><span class="invisible">s-twitter-storm/</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/FundFosstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>FundFosstodon</span></a></p>
Nour Agha :popos:<p>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.</p><p>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.</p><p>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 <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/FundFosstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>FundFosstodon</span></a>. Any amount makes a difference.</p>
Ross A.
