Hi. As you may know, I’ve opened the instance about 12 days ago. Right now, the instance is ranked 6th out of hundreds of instances.

We’re now using 4 vCPU and 16GB RAM server for 38€ which is very cheap (Not that cheap anymore. We’re using dedicated 16 CPU, 48GB RAM server for 160€). But we need donations to continue uploading media or even to increase the limit and move to a better server against instant load. Also we transfered 5TB of media only in 12 days 🤷‍♂️ Thanks to Cloudflare, this didn’t cause much trouble to us.

If you want to donate, here’s donation platforms we use:
Note: I removed old crypto payment methods and Patreon kicked us. We got $182 with old crypto payment methods and $80 from Patreon.

    Out of curiosity how much storage are you using either total or on average with this instance? I feel like with the amount of media being uploaded it’s likely slightly larger than others.
