@pixelfed you might want to consider registering as non-profit entity, or a "Friends of Pixelfed" non-profit that can donate to Pixelfed/you, so users can get a tax break and donate more. Happy to contribute anyway!

One other suggestion: offer a suggestion donate based on some basic usage. I always have a hard time figuring out what's an appropriate donation to a services I like vs when does it may sense to just buy a similar product. This could be useful for server owners.

@alpha1beta @pixelfed in this case I compare to a commercial service. Image hosting... Flickr (i think $30 a year), $8 for Mastodon like X(itter) Blue....

@urbautz Exactly.
I compare the flat price, and then factor in what privacy, freedom, quality of the app/website UI etc and general goodwill and promoting my beliefs have.

For instance, I judged I'd rather spend $15/month between hosting and donation for Mastodon, than $8 for Twitter.
