I'm really sorry to ask but at this moment my gf and me are personally still 274 euros short for rent this month 😟 :sad_cat:

It been a rough month.. Luckily all server bills are paid for so thats the biggest part ❤️

If you can miss something, any bit would help out a lot

@stux about how many percentage of the bills do you get from donations?

@stux ✅ Your ⁂fedi-serverpark keeps it fun for us single-user hosts as well! :neocat_heart:

Don't get me wrong @stux , I really appreciate, that you host an instance (or multiple) for so many people. I just hope that people would spread to more instances one day, so not a handful people need to keep the Fediverse alive and struggle each month with server payments. :hmmmm:

@Lorker Indeed ❤️ we should get a better donation system more build-in the service so it should be a lot easier for people :blobcathearts: and admins ofc!

@stux that would be great ☺️

Another theory would be, that people are just not used to the idea, that multiple servers are able to communicate to each other. They see an instance for "art" or "nature loving people" and then they join those instances, while those instances already struggle to keep like 30k users.

Just saying 🤭

My server could easily handle 50 more people but no body wants to join 😁

@stux @Lorker Mastodon team is actually working on that, you can ask @renchap 😃

@stux Done (and never say sorry please, it's just the task of users supporting).

@stux done (paypal). Better luck next month.

@stux done hope it helps. Sent €50.

@lb_sjc that helps most certainlly! ❤️ thank you so much!

@sancla thank you so much ❤️

@stux
its not much but hope it will help a bit. :coffee_mug:

@Benmh every bit helps out a lot Ben, thank you :blobsnuggle:

@Benmh @stux supported. Ideal... Hooe it makes your month somewhat better.

@ernstdemoor thank you for your help Ernst :cat_hug_triangle:

@TheTepidEmperor thank you so much for you help :blobcathearts:

@stux @farah Wait you paid for server costs over your literal housing costs to keep a roof over your head? I'm sorry you're in a tough financial situation but those priorities need to get flipped ASAP.

@stux Just sent you 100$ CAD, but because of the Orange Clown it's not worth much right now, still I hope it helps :)

@stux washy and George need a roof over their heads donation done. I wish there was a better way to set up a monthly donation.

@stux Het spijt me @stux ... op dit moment zit ik op randje voedselbank. Hoop dat ik de provider nog kan betalen deze maand. Maar als ik kan, steun ik je wederom. 🙏

@WillyECoyote69 Nooit sorry zeggen! ❤️ Weet dat dat altijd voor gaat :cat_hug_triangle: ik wil alleen donaties waanner het echt OVER is! ander niet! 😉

Ik wil niet dat iemand in de problemen komt, ever :cat_hug_triangle:

@stux i know it's for the server but i wonder if people do donate to those who ask for paying rent or other 'ordinary' expenses

@stux sent a bit extra on top of my monthly donation. It would be nice if this could be solved structurally. Do you have an idea which percentage of costs are covered by recurring donations?

@stux I have to say, it’s so cool to see everyone chip in!

@sancla But for real! ❤️ i really feel so much appreciated :blobblush:

it truly is amazing how we can help each other out in our ways :cat_hug_triangle:

@stux
Help! Kan het adres niet vinden in PayPal 🤷‍♂️

@stux Just popped in $20 US. I'll try to do so to keep things running. I'm new to this server, just moved here a few days ago.

Best! Joe S.

@stux sent some 💶 thanks for running the server!

@stux Done, thank you for being a safe harbor

@stux best wishes from Sydney dear Stux o/` hope things worked out for you two
