I did try donating for Lemmy through Liberapay using the link in this post but canceled the process when I saw that the money recipient was “peertube.social”, which I don’t use. I’d feel better donating if the money went to Lemmy and not Peertube.

Weird, the link goes to Lemmy's page for me - https://liberapay.com/Lemmy. Did OP have it wrong and then updated it?

I mean when I navigate to the Lemmy’s donation page and proceed with setting up a recurring payment, my bank asks for confirmation of the transaction. During this, my bank identifies the recipient as “PeerTube.social”. I find it a bit confusing, but I guess the other Lemmy founder also owns peertube.

This peertube.social doesn't lead me to where I thought it would. 😅
