Support Lemmy development ads? (infosec.pub)

Anyone else getting these donation ads? Was it just shoved onto an update by the Lemmy devs, or is this coming from the instance admins? It doesn't seem to show on clean browser sessions to lemmy.ca

I don't mind a request for support in principle, and I regularly donate to other similar projects.

It's the implementation that will ultimately make the request succeed or fail. As in how often is it shown and in what manner.

This, that's sort of why I am asking.

There should be conditional and optional consent given to the host to decide whether to allow it or not to show up. They may also be interested in placing their own donation petitions using the same functionality.
