I made a small donation, and if you like it here, I think you should (if you can) too.

I am one of many that have sought out alternatives to Reddit. I really like the feel of how this community works. I’ve not seen them push the need for support, but I’m sure they’re feeling it. It’s clear they’ve made changes in the past couple of days to help support the growth & load.

That said, servers and bandwidth aren’t free, and they’ve seen a massive wave of influx.

I’m not affiliated with Beehaw in any way other than being part of the exodus from Reddit, and I like it here.

*This is my first actual non-comment post, so here’s hoping I didn’t mess this up.

    Yeah it would be cool if they could breakdown what the cost per user per month is, I’d be willing to pay for myself and a few others regularly

      The last update I saw said the server cost is something like $55 per month and there is $600 or so in reserves. The updates are usually in Beehaw Support community

      Edit: sorry for all the repeated posts, y’all! I was having trouble posting and then suddenly it all worked
