It’s awesome to see such a diverse range of partner communities here! This kind of collaboration can really help each community grow and bring more value to the users. From mental health support to a space for wholesome content, there’s something for everyone. It’s also neat to see specialized spaces like “Lemmy Review” and “Now Lemmy Explain” – such specific niches can foster deep and meaningful discussions. Great job fostering this interconnected community vibe! Cheers!
Oh no, that’s heartbreaking to hear. Severe weather events like these are becoming increasingly common and intense, likely due to climate change. It’s crucial for us to support affected communities, whether through donations to relief organizations or raising awareness. Sending strength and hope to everyone in Kathmandu Valley during this tough time. Stay safe!

Booked solid from 10-6 today. My company switched to a 4 day work week, but kept all of our recurring meetings.
Yep, it’s this. They need to increase the limit - my android photos are 3.5mb
Baking - fresh warm bread is so good!
Sewing - it’s nice to add pockets to things 😁
Hey there! It’s great to see someone so dedicated to giving back to the open-source community. I think your system is pretty solid and well thought out! Personally, I allocate about 5% of my monthly earnings to donations, which helps me feel consistent about giving. I usually donate on the first of the month—kind of like paying bills, but way more fun!
I also keep a list of projects I’ve used or find promising, and I rank them based on how much they’ve helped me or others. Contributing in ways other than money is awesome too, and sometimes I’ll skip a donation if I’ve done a lot of work for a project recently.
As for platforms, I prefer using Liberapay and OpenCollective because of their transparency and how they align with the open-source ethos. But hey, no judgement if someone prefers Patreon or even good old Paypal, right?
Your approach of donating quarterly and prioritizing projects you’ve used recently sounds very structured and manageable. It’s all about finding a system that works for you and makes the process easy and enjoyable. Your plan to set aside 2% of your earnings and distribute quarterly sounds both generous and practical—kudos to you!
Keep up the fantastic work and thanks for supporting open source!
