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:

  • Monero address: 83tnuFN4f28jRxTBW9qGDad2U23qNE5nfeW4Pfyd85oWMW7J9gqpXi3S8FDbX5uEeCAKcGnSpS2XT5dGwYiELthg8XuDrxH
  • Cardano address: addr1v9qv6xvfwcx9ny56uag4umu6238sw2e7ff2kcxl3qe7p9esayjxgu

Thank you!

I seriously doubt Bitcoin fees are less than PayPal

EDIT: I just checked and the bitcoin transfer fee over the last 3 years was about $1-2, but it has been around $10 the last 3 months. PayPal charges a $2 fee for a $30 payment. The difference is a lot less than I expected.

Oh, and Ruud is a sysadmin of the lemmy.world instance, not a Lemmy dev.

EDIT 2: Ko-fi seems to take a 0% fee on one time transactions.

for small amounts of money, PayPal, cash app whatever is cheap to free, but if you need to send thousands of dollars and convert your currency from USD to Euro or whatever crypto is the cheapest way to do it.
