Excited to get off reddit, excited to see lemmy grow; growth is expensive. How is this getting paid for?

Curious how lemmy servers are paid for. Is it donation?

I just wanted to make sure people knew that their money could go to tankies.

You said you were giving to "Lemmy" on patreon, not Lemmy.world so I assumed it was the devs.

Regarding the donation, I signed up at Patreon which is referred by Ruud who I believe is the admin for all the .world Lemmy and Mastodon instances. I just saw where they actually prefer donations via OpenCollective, so I will likely change mine to that at some point.
