Speaking of fediverse projects needing support, I've mentioned before that @dansup is one of the most prolific developers in the 'verse. Leading the charge on Pixelfed, Loops, Sup, Pubkit FediDB, and fediverse.info. The recent drama around TakeTok in the US, and its possible purchase by ZuckerBorg, have highlighted why developing short video apps for the fediverse (like Loops) is so important.
@Dansup is running a crowdfunding campaign to fund their work. Please share;
