Due to the uncertainty surrounding the image storage issue last month, I haven’t been able to update the instance’s expense and donations for two months. Now that the issues have been resolved, I think it’s time to do so.

The latest financial statement as of July 19 was as follows:

USD ETH XMR
205 0.0145 0.9264

Since July 19, we have received donations of $25, 0.0061 ETH, 0.0734 XMR. I paid $63.5 per month for 3 months (Jul, Aug, Sep) for server. I also paid $33.5 to our old S3 provider and $16 to the new one. The latest status is as follows:

USD ETH XMR
-35 0.0206 0.9594

Unfortunately, the situation doesn’t look very promising :) Still, we’ve had worse days. If you’d like to donate, you can do so here: https://lemmynsfw.com/post/87160

Update

We’ve received a lot of donations over the past five days. Thanks everyone 🙏 Here’s the final tally:

We received $355 in donations from 17 different donors. I have converted 0.95 XMR to $277 (since we can’t really use XMR). In the end, we have $597.

Additionally, we received donations of 0.0035 ETH, 0.0062 ETH, and 0.0475 XMR. We currently have 0.0304 ETH and 0.0565 XMR.

Things weren’t looking great when I posted, but we seem to be doing well now.

    Keep doing these posts. I threw some money in because of this post. I don’t have much, but what I have I share. I followed the Throne link, I don’t like crypto (I know it’s preferred).

      Thank you 🙏 We used to use a single post for donations. At lemmyposter212’s suggestion, we switched to sharing a monthly financial statement. Now, I’ll be sharing pinned posts for a few days at the end of each month. I hope this will simplify things.
