anime graf mays ?️?at the suggestion of staff, users, friends, my mom, my fiance i am going to update the mothly tally to include the costs of hardware in october and our transit costs with crunchbits in december as an average over the year. its not realistic for us to operate something at this scale for as little as we are (inflation, rising cost of employment, transit costs) spiking. our costs will only increase as everything else does.
i have cut corners where i can, as i can for as long as i can but it's no longer possible so i will be increasing the meter. the meter doesnt take into consideration one-off donations, crypto dontions or the like, which normally there would be enough to cover but this year we are in a major deficit, about -2500% year over year
the point of this post isnt to make anybody donate or to make anybody feel bad but to draw attention to the fact we also are now facing inflation and we need to adapt to that, as well.
we will continue to be progressive in regards to figuring out ways to drum up capital, but for the interim:
patron.poa.st - consider becoming a monthly patron give.poast.org - consider giving a once-off large, xtra large or giantic one-time donation with this (gigantic being anything over 10$) poa.st/donate/crypto - are you a crypto bro? this is your page liberapay.com/poast - really love anonymity? this is your donation solution
@LordOfTheKangs no, but there is exactly 2 of you who make up about 100$/year so far, so I will consider that to be income for domain name renewals etc.
