I was trying to work out how much to donate to Kbin to keep the lights on. I read somewhere it costs something like $1/month per user?
Can we assume that 1/5 of users will be donating on a monthly basis?
So most people will be donating something like $5/month to cover the freeloaders and those that genuinely can’t afford it?
Does that seem about right?
I was surprised to see that only 190 out of ~5k users have so far donated:

That maths doesn’t work does it?
I hope there’s a recurring payment option soon like Open Collective otherwise I’ll probably forget to donate next month.
Correct. That’s sort of the whole idea behind “The Fediverse” Lots of smaller instances of a thing talking to each other, instead of one big monolithic thing.
It’s pretty intriguing. I had no idea any of this stuff was even going on prior to the blackout.
