I donate to them because i believe in the cause. Its $1 per month, so not like its breaking the bank. But if every user donated the same, they would have more than enough to cover the bills

I used to pay a dollar a month to Apollo. I’m happy to donate it to a Lemmy instance.

Yep Steve Huffman literally said he didn’t want our dirty 3rd party app loving money so fuck them, let’s help build the feddiverse

All that idiot had to do was monetize 3rd party apps by expanding the API to allow for the purchase of coins/awards in return for something like a 5% cut going to the devs. Too late now though, we're all in a vastly superior social media site.

Could you share a link? I've been trying to find a way to donate

What's the difference between mastodon and lemmy

[–] kaotic 9 points 1 year ago

Mastodon is similar to Twitter, while Lemmy is similar to Reddit.

See the heart button up top in the web client.

That's to support the Lemmy software but I'm looking to donate to the Lemmy.world instance

It's in the sidebar of the lemmy.world front page. Links below!

FYI the lemmy.world admins should have changed it then to whatever they want. It's supposed to be the default place for support links. You should let them know.
