Chad :mstdn: on Nostr: I don't want to send out an email about this because it will cost the community at ...
I don't want to send out an email about this because it will cost the community at least $600. Sending 36000 emails means we incur a significant cost. I'd rather we try to fundraise this in-house.
We were at this point in November, we saw members sign up to support the instance but as of today, most of these donors have cancelled or have ducked out due a lack of funds.
I get it. Times are tight for many of us including me.
I hope we can see folks step up that aren't in this though position.
