How do I donate to everyone working on Lemmy? (self.fediverse)

Hello Lemmings!

I understand that the developers of this wonderful world are living on donations right now. Communities that pay for themselves are nicer places!

I found the donate link here (https://join-lemmy.org/donate), but that seems to go to just one developer. I would like to donate to everyone, including the creators of Lemmy as a whole, and the creators of Lemmy.World.

How do I do that?

Great. There seem to be two ways to donate, Patreon and OpenCollective. Is one better than the other for the devs regarding fees? Afaik Patreon claims a small fee, not sure about OpenCollective.

The devs prefer Liberapay or OpenCollective due to their FOSS nature, but ultimately the choice is up to you. I use Liberapay, and unfortunately there are fees there, too.
