[Fixed] Donation platforms for Lemmy.World - eviltoast

There’s some unrest because the Open Collective Foundation is stopping.

Don’t worry, we use Open Collective Europe as a donations platform, they’re going nowhere.

We’ve added some donation platforms, so if you would like to support us running our .world servers, you can do so here:

And for those wanting to donate crypto:

    The real danger isn’t on Lemmy.World, where I think the money would go where intended. The real danger is incentivizing people to spin up small instances in the hopes of collecting.

      That won’t work. I have 340k users on my servers and it just covers the running cost. So with a 100 user instance you would get peanuts.

        I guess the cross server implementation would be difficult. If you buy credits on lemm.ee, and gild a lemmy.ml user, who honors it to… not show you ads?

        I guess it’s mostly just a decoration thing to support the comment/post and the server. Still, which server displays which awards could get thorny.
