I blogged about what happened in June, and the financial overview.

    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”
