Obviously there’s probably a spike associated with people coming from Reddit in traffic and in donations but I think it’s going to be important to keep track of these trends to make sure the team can build a reserve of funds to keep .world’s prospects nice and healthy.

That would be a lot of work and extra bookkeeping… The costs like Hetzner and Wasabi and Mailgun are all in 1 account, same invoice. But we might make the branding on the Patreon/OpenCollective pages a bit more clear.
