    So? Do, or don’t. Either their service provides people with enough value to donate to keep it running, or it doesn’t and goes under.

    Altruism doesn’t pay the bills; but it doesn’t hurt to ask. Can’t blame them for that.

      You know what also works like that? Any other traditional business operation.

      I am saying that since 2022: we only have a shot at this succeeding if we all start putting something at stake.

          You are the exception, and you will find out that even the most prolific participants here claiming that $5 per year is enough to cover the hardware costs, so he doesn’t see any reason to give more than that.
