The current funds are enough to operate it at it's current capacity for ~11 months. Once we get to accepting donations again and figure out how to set up our accounting, I would definitely like to see a growing contingency reserve fund built up to be ready for future unexpected growth or unexpected slowdown in donations.
We will continue to be transparent in a similar format to this but split the remaining balance in a operating fund and reserve fund.
That's the plan!
Can I make a suggestion? I would like to contribute but I can't afford a lot and frankly I'm a little embarrassed about how little I can afford. idk if your plans involve any sort of flair for people who contribute, but if it does, can you ensure there is a minimal amount people can contribute, that still gets their flair but doesn't say they are cheap/poor? Thanks.
Ever contribution is greatly appreciated even if it's just 10 cents a month (please don't actually donate just 10 cents, payment fees are more than that). We currently don't have plans of doing flairs but if we ever do we will keep what you've mentioned in mind.
I'd do this
