Chronicle the life and tale of the fediverse (+ matrix)

Largely a sublemmy about capturing drama, from fediverse spanning drama to just lemmy drama.

Includes lore like how a instance got it's name, how an instance got defederated, how an admin got doxxed, fedihistory etc

(New) This sub's intentions is to an archive/newspaper, as in preferably don't get into fights with each other or the ppl featured in the drama

PG 2 of the Fedizens Times June 5

The Beehaw financial report with alyasha

our hopefully-final update of where we stand is a break-even of $54 a month or $648 a year. (please once again ignore OC's estimated yearly budget--we don't determine it lol)

our expenses are currently:

$48/mo toward our host, Digital Ocean. (reversible. if we need to commit to further than this it is also likely we will seek another host since DO is on the expensive side)
$2/mo for weekly backups
$4/mo for daily snapshots of the website, which would allow us to restore the website in between the weekly backups if need be.

for a total of at least $54/mo in expenses. this may vary from month to month though, so we're baking in a bit of uncertainty with our estimation.

we currently have, for the month of June:

$85/mo in recurring donations (at least for June)
$620 this month in one-time donations

for a total of $705 this month. our total balance now stands at 726.51.

that balance means we now have about a year of reserves currently, if we received no other donations and have no unexpected expenses. i'm sure we'll have churn in our monthly donations and such though, so please don't hesitate to donate on our OpenCollective page if you'd like to keep the site going.

What's the relationship of this to the post?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Tbh it should really be a separate post, I'm not used to anyone reading posts on this sub let alone commenting.

Tho I also don't want this sub to be "Beehaw drama and lore" and it would be that if every single beehaw lore update was a separate post.

Changed the OP comment to make this a bit more clear
