Lemmy is booming

I have never before received so many reactions and comments on my Lemmy posts before, so it's obvious to see, that there are many new members here.
Welcome to all the new! And I'm looking forward to see more of you here.
Cheers!

We only have 2-3 full time devs at the moment, it wouldn't take much to fund us at all. Youtube streamers make more than most open source devs :(

We might try to do yearly funding drives after this year when our NLnet grant runs out.

Here's ou, donation page if anyone would like to support our time: https://join-lemmy.org/donate

when our NLnet grant runs out.

That's unfortunate to hear...

Any possibility of renewing it/reapplying somehow?

[–] dessalines@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

We've renewed it for several years now, but most of the important activitypub work is done. Now we're focused on code maintainence, performance, ancillary features, and front-end work.
