I’m engaging with dozens of servers and hundreds of creators on lemmy, and I’d like to give back to more of them. I built a tool a few years ago called subless(subless.com) which aimed to do something similar for the non-federated internet, and I’d like to make something for the Fediverse too.

Do you think donations should be distributed like content?

I threw together a survey that would really help me understand how y’all are thinking about donations. I’d really appreciate it if anyone could fill it out.

Thanks!

    I guess it depends on what you want?

    Is it some sort of ‘get together and share stuff’ thing or a ‘earn a living from content creation’ ?

    I mean you can spin up a small instance for 10€ a month if it’s the former…

      One of the big problems now is the amount of space needed to host media. It’s gonna be a limiting factor quick.

        Weell yeah maybe. But I just got myself a spare 3TB drive for like 30€ so I can backup my Lemmy who’s living on a 4TB drive. Will it be enough? For some time I sure do think so.
