I made a small donation, and if you like it here, I think you should (if you can) too.

I am one of many that have sought out alternatives to Reddit. I really like the feel of how this community works. I’ve not seen them push the need for support, but I’m sure they’re feeling it. It’s clear they’ve made changes in the past couple of days to help support the growth & load.

That said, servers and bandwidth aren’t free, and they’ve seen a massive wave of influx.

I’m not affiliated with Beehaw in any way other than being part of the exodus from Reddit, and I like it here.

*This is my first actual non-comment post, so here’s hoping I didn’t mess this up.

    It’s a breath of fresh air here. I’m days old and have no desire to turn back. I’m not lurking anymore after 12+ years. And it feels human, despite being a digital platform.The investment seems like a risk worth taking honestly. (as long as they stay transparent) Let’s keep it up, yeah?

    Side note: I remember a questionnaire for brave browser maybe? About their BAT pay system for publishers/ devs to sustain their ecosystems. And I settled on $2 a month being fair for an ad-free/ hassle-free experience, granted the content was worth it. This feels entirely worth it. And I don’t have to deal with fucking tokens.
