Sorry for the short notice, but I will be performing some server maintenance at 10:30 CST tonight.
I am going to switch to the next plan up (6 CPU 4 GB RAM) and take a snapshot of the VM while i’m at it. I’m hoping it shouldn’t take too long.
I plan on doing a longer “State of the Instance” post soon, just to update everyone with how we’re doing with donations, etc.
edit: 10:51 PM - Maintenance is complete!
Presumably this costs money. Is there some way to pitch in?
There’s some links in the sidebar of the homepage.
Here are the donation links:
https://liberapay.com/lemmy.ca/
https://opencollective.com/lemmy-ca
Thanks!
Liberapay doesn’t take a cut, does the payment processing fee from Stripe get taken from the donation amount before getting sent to you? I’m assuming yes, just want to make sure.
pretty sure Stripe takes a fee of some sort. i’m new to taking donations too.
Off a CA$36.40 donation they took CA$1.36. Not the worst rate.
not bad! and thank you!
No, thank you for putting in the time and work.
