I imagine there's excitement for the increase of activity but worries about the potential toxic side of Reddit coming along too.

I'd especially be interested in the Lemmy devs' opinions.

I went here because I could do a one time donation. I plan to see how things go and eventually set up a recurring one though.

https://opencollective.com/lemmy

I found it on the main lemmy page where you sign up for a server. It probably needs to be posted in more places, like on the communities pages. (there's a patreon site too where you can donate)

On liberapay you can also donate any custom amount just once. It will simply calculate it as "$x/week", iirc.

Check near the bottom of https://join-lemmy.org/

There you can see the different options to support Lemmy.

Here is their donation page with all three currently supported options.

I don't know much about Open Collective, but LiberaPay does not take a cut (only the fees of the payment processors) so I would discourage you to choose Patreon.

Edit: Actually there are more options listed since you can also donate crypto.
