Lemmy Needs Donations! (lemmy.ml)

Between Lemmy.world desperately needing new mod tools, Lemmy.ee disabling image uploads, and the two main Lemmy.ml devs working on Lemmy for less than minimum wage, I want to urge and remind everyone to please Donate!

The Lemmy devs have refused advertisements, refused collaboration with Meta, and focused all of their efforts (and then more) to support the wave of users who left Reddit. The Lemmy devs did this, as they let the work owed to their sponsor take the back seat, to give everyone here today reading this message the best experience possible.

Lemmy is already at 1% the size of Reddit, but only has 2 full time employees. Not only do they deserve more for the gruelling hours they've put in, but so does everyone else who's contributed too.

I donated some money, but do the links in the "donate" link support Lemmy.ml or Lemmy.world or both?

I subscribe to mostly Lemmy.world instances, and have a Lemmy.world account. Which community makes the most sense for me to support?

https://join-lemmy.org/support goes to the Lemmy developers not to any particual instance though lemmy.ml is hosted by the Lemmy developers. Each individual instance have their own support methods in the sidebar.
