Just saw this by chance: Donations and Patrons for Lemmy development surged massively on Liberapay in the last weeks! (lemmynsfw.com)

Don't know what the exact cause was/is for this big surge - but I am glad to see it. No matter what personal problems people may have with the main devs, they are doing great work on the platform.

Also of interest, since this is a good place to plug things, other threadiverse things:

And I couldn't find a way to donate to mbin, in lieu of that:

Dev posted few weeks ago about donations being a little short and having lowered making it more difficult to support development. A lot of people then started to donate or increase their financial support.

Ah, yes, that was right at the time where I was having peak personal stress/health issues and only did the bare minimum admin work on Lemmy and my other platforms, no wonder I missed it. Glad to see people actually responded to the call to action, though!
