It's maybe a little early since the bills for servers, media storage and emails come around the 20th but since I just moved it was an very expensive month..

It’s absurd that instance owners have to beg for support like it’s a favor.
If you rely on a service, do the grown-up thing and help pay for it.
Servers, storage, moderation, and uptime aren’t powered by vibes.
Even $5 / €5 helps.
Check your server’s About page. If you can afford a coffee, you can afford to contribute.
Parting shot: if Mastodon really cared about growing the ecosystem, funding tools would already be built in for #Mastoadmin use. Looking at you, @Gargron 👀
