For all you #newusers to the #Fediverse:
As I mentioned previously, your admins take the time (likely volunteered), energy (possibly caffeinated), and finances (some of their own, even) to run your instances. Please consider donating to offset costs. Don’t know who your admin is?
——> log into the web client
——> look for those 3 elipses at the lower right on the bottom of the menu

#communityfunded

Our project is funded by people like you, and we need about $130 USD for an Apple developer account and Google Play Store account to publish the  Live app (and eventually the main app!)

Will you help us reach that goal? The preferred donation method is our PayPal, https://paypal.me/dansup but you can also donate via https://www.patreon.com/dansup or https://liberapay.com/pixelfed

Boosts appreciated, and thank you for supporting us ❤️ #pixelfed #communityFunded
