Surely an instance that is growing at the rate this one is will incur a rise in operation costs. I'd venture a guess that required administration time also will rise.
So... how can we help?

Thank you for asking! As far as resources we're doing quite well hardware/network wise and our colocation provider in Seattle Washington has been incredibly helpful to us since September of 2022 when we needed to scale up Mastodon quickly.
On the Mastodon side folks there suggested a "Not a Blue Check Mark Club" as a fun and inexpensive way for the community to show support without having to make a big commitment. This has now been subscripted as "Not a Closed API Club"
It should also be clear that the best way to support SDF's efforts in the Fediverse is to use the resources and to talk to your friends about why Decentralized, Federated social networking is better for us all. And while it is not at all necessary, any financial support through donations or membership on the SDF Public Access UNIX side is greatly appreciated and goes to our mission of "a community platform for inspiring, facilitating and implementing new ideas".

SDF is such a treasure. Thank you for everything!
