So a few days ago. I made a post that indicated maybe starting to wrap things up on the 22nd Aug (Saturday) as 3 months thats needed to wrap things up comes to exactly 4 years since Cupoftea.social was launched. I am struggling to maintain this financially as I do not like asking constantly for donations. I also do not want to rely on the same people to donate a lot on a monthly basis. This month I tried to ask others and whilst there has been quite a few people donating, it has not covered the costs of the bills and my time I put in as it goes towards my own bills (£100 Energy etc) . I do not feel its the end for Cupoftea.social but im struggling this month with the outgoings. If anyone has any suggestions on how I can change things going forward.

Limiting mstdn.party due to "Low Income Housing" spam over running the instance.

@pablo @devilonger @MastodonEngineering it's on others they just won't advertise them because they're getting greedy with the mastodon name not being Seperate from the software.

I see alot of people commenting on the copyright strike in itself but not why they guy Tom Evans is very obviously trying to hide the fact they are cheap components that this preamp has the value of less than my Mani 2 at £150 in spec. Also the possible mail fraud attempt in that it actually takes some serious blatant damage for this to end up the way it did and suspect Tom sent this through a courier in an effort to retrieve compensation fraudulently.

Watching Discovery. I sorted starting watching things in timeline order. This is near the end as it goes well into the year 3100 odd.
