  We have done before, but don’t do that often, so we don’t bother users too much. But we might do again soon, and maybe do a monthly post on the mastodons/sharkeys etc

  Sending e-mail to info at lemmy dot world would be the best option. The team will pick that up.

  (By the way: 2 EUR per year would be enough if every active user would donate that but they don’t)

  For lemmy.world / mastodon.world including some of the smaller instances we host, it’s like 0,06 euro per active user per month. If every active user would pay 2 Euro per year that would be enough to cover hosting costs. If every active user would pay 1 euro per month, I could quit my dayjob and focus on the Fediverse fulltime.

  (Sidenote: Stux and I created the non-profit Fedihosting Foundation which owns lemmy.world … but finances are still separate for his and my instances)

  I’ll try to install the BookFace UI on friendica.world. Also I’ve started a Friendica manual at help.friendica.onl but it needs to get content.

  This is for the Lemmy.World server (just the physical box, not the related VMs). Around 12TB last month. Image

  Thanks, I sent them an e-mail.
