This is a little late, but I figure that it’s better late than never!
For full transparency, I’m just going to give a high level overview of the financial situation of lemmy.ca through June 2023, when I started to accept donations.
Total Expenses: $30.00
This includes all hosting fees, including backups, etc.
Total Contributions: $1,503.03
- $1,184.84 through LiberaPay
- $318.19 through OpenCollective
All contribution amounts are not including payment processor and/or OpenCollective fees.
Remaining Balance: $1,473.03
I plan on transferring the remaining balance to the new admin team, whenever they are ready to accept it.
Thank you to all that have contributed so far, I couldn’t have gotten the instance to where it is now without your generosity. I’m very excited to see what comes next and look forward to watching the instance grow more!
Nice to still see you around. I guess the transition hasn’t fully completed yet. At the current rate of expenses, it appears we have quite a healthy reserve.
I’ve decided to stick around for now to help out with Admin/server stuff, but everything has been fully transitioned over to them now.
We asked him to stick around for as long as he wants in whatever capacity he wants. Good to have his input for a longer transition period so we can carry on his way of doing things.
