Lemmy is booming

I have never before received so many reactions and comments on my Lemmy posts before, so it's obvious to see, that there are many new members here.
Welcome to all the new! And I'm looking forward to see more of you here.
Cheers!

Yep, fediverse observer reports monthly active users count has doubled in four days, no real change in revenue (money donated) it seems which is a shame. The conversion rate needs to improve IMO and it seems that the option to donate is not attracting the attention it deserves. I think lemmy needs more improvements so it will be able to retain a bigger chunk of the users that is exploring the platform, look at what happened to mastodon and the fediverse after the migration after elon musk buyout , According to the statistics almost half the users are gone.

What's the best way to contribute? I used the Patreon link at the bottom of the join lemmy page.

Looking at it now https://www.patreon.com/dessalines is pretty lite on details.

@wiki_me @Machindo Dessalines is one of the admins for lemmy.ml and I think he's also a Dev so it seems like the right place to contribute.

Liberapay, I think, iirc it is the only platform that does not take a ten percent cut (you can see the link to it if you click on the little heart next to "create community").
