Its admin @sunaurus@lemm.ee wrote all about it here: https://lemm.ee/post/26
Thanks. Looking at the admin's profile, he seems to be very reasonable. I especially like this comment he made:
Yep ... seems refreshingly and perfectly reasonable to me.
It says a significant chunk of their funding comes from users. Where does the other funding come from?
The admin made a post reporting on the finances.
Good to see donations are keeping the place afloat!
What is github sponsorship? Are they advertising on that note instance?
GitHub sponsorships are a way of donating to programmers. In addition to hosting lemm.ee, sunaurus has made significant contributions to Lemmy's codebase. (In my opinion, he is by far the most skilled programmer working on Lemmy.)
