Our current donation amounts, summing from the various platforms, and live updated every few hours, are here: https://join-lemmy.org/donate
Currently we have 2 full time devs(nutomic and me, splitting ~1 dev salary, as you can see from the above link), and have 2-3 more that we’d like to add as fulltime to our little dev coop.
We’re also in the process of getting another year of funding from NLNet (we’ll announce this once its finalized), which will go to the new devs we’re trying to onboard.
Is there a difference between a donation and a sponsor? As in are the NLNet contributions included in that €4k value?
Since you’ve used different terms it makes me think they’re different.
We sometimes get one-off crypto donations, but they’re pretty rare. The totals on that site are the recurring donations / sponsors, which helps make it easier to estimate our yearly budget.
NLnet is separate from that above also, and was what made lemmy possible by letting us work on it full-time, for most of its history. We’ve been trying to shift to a sponsorship / recurring donation model, as that’s more sustainable for the future, and will let us grow the co-op better.
Ah okay, so it’s not as transparent as it seems? It sounds like some of the contributions are hidden.
No, everything is transparent.
Forgive my misunderstanding. I don’t understand this sentence then. I read it as the NLnet contributions are not included in the €4k value. May you clarify please?
Why have you chosen to not clarify?
