Lemmy - Support
join-lemmy.org

Let’s say some of us would like to donate money to the Lemmy developers, and we’d like to make sure as much as possible goes to said developers, which would be the best donation platform to do so?

If the developers read this - aside from the above - is there one you prefer over the other for some reason?

(Yea, sending them money directly through crypto is probably the best to ensure they get the most out of it, but many of us prefer the comfort of those donation platforms.)

    The link to all three donation platforms they support/use is linked from the donation page that I linked in this post.

    I’ve had a closer look at Liberapay after whay you said. It seems they don’t take any cut at all. Liberapay itself is funded through donations. However, there are of course fees for the payment processor.

      To answer my questions:

      • according to the payment receipt, EUR were converted to USD (at 1.085)
      • for EUR 10, the processing fees were $0.78, so $10.07 was paid out.

      So switching to USD from next month.
