The .world blog: June overview
The .world blog: June overview
I blogged about what happened in June, and the financial overview.
You're viewing a single thread.
It’s so helpful to see the costs and the raise from donations each month.
Obviously there’s probably a spike associated with people coming from Reddit in traffic and in donations but I think it’s going to be important to keep track of these trends to make sure the team can build a reserve of funds to keep .world’s prospects nice and healthy.
Yes we keep the finances in the blog every month so trends can also be seen.
Would there be a point in setting up dedicated donation links for Lemmy.World? Some potential donors might be confused or hesitant because they see Mastodon in the name and they're not using that service.
That would be a lot of work and extra bookkeeping.. The costs like Hetzner and Wasabi and Mailgun are all in 1 account, same invoice. But we might make the branding on the Patreon/OpenCollective pages a bit more clear.
I was thinking many Lemmy-only users would want their donations earmarked, but if many of the costs are shared that makes it more complicated.
Better clarification and branding sounds like a good step then, I guess the page is really more like ".world on the Fediverse"
