It's been a while since I've heard any news. Not that there's anything wrong with that cause you guys are working on Lemmy aswell.

Just saw this post now. Its exactly this, I already worked on Ibis for around three months to finish the proof of concept, but it will take roughly a year of fulltime work to get it ready for production, and I cant afford to spend so much time working on this for free. I did apply for funding from NLnet, so if we're lucky and it gets approved I will be able to work on it more. Otherwise Ibis will remain in the current state, or I have to look for funding elsewhere (suggestions welcome).

Donations, perhaps? I'm not sure if they should be mixed with or kept separate from the funds for Lemmy.

There are donation options in the announcement post. However I think people are very unlikely to donate to a project in proof of concept stage which doesn't have any real users yet.
