I made a small donation, and if you like it here, I think you should (if you can) too.
I am one of many that have sought out alternatives to Reddit. I really like the feel of how this community works. I’ve not seen them push the need for support, but I’m sure they’re feeling it. It’s clear they’ve made changes in the past couple of days to help support the growth & load.
That said, servers and bandwidth aren’t free, and they’ve seen a massive wave of influx.

I’m not affiliated with Beehaw in any way other than being part of the exodus from Reddit, and I like it here.
*This is my first actual non-comment post, so here’s hoping I didn’t mess this up.
To anyone looking to donate here is a financial thread made by the admins for this month where they outline where money is going and how much is spent roughly each month (it is a few days old however and donations have increased since then so i would keep that in mind) https://beehaw.org/post/428209
