Today, I decided to back @gotosocial@gts.superseriousbusiness.org with a monthly donation of 10,00€.
The #GoToSocial project is free and open source Fediverse software providing a social media microblogging system that you can host yourself (or join an existing instance of) – very similar to how #Mastodon works, the software this instance is running.
In years of hosting my own personal GoToSocial instance, I have come to love the project and never once run into an issue, even during setup, when upgrading to new versions or when performing database migrations. The team is lively, clearly passionate, responsive and amazingly friendly, and their direction has turned GoToSocial into what is in my opinion the best Fediverse server software out there at the moment.
Supporting the project with a (recurring or one-off) donation provides their two main developers the means to live and continue developing the software independently and for free – by enabling them to pay themselves a very, very modest wage of just 1.000€ a month, according to their donation drive. You'd support the health of the entire #Fediverse, software sovereignty and not least a queer-led, progressive collaborative software project that makes the internet a better place. I encourage anyone and everyone to consider their support if they can afford to do so! :)
Not affiliated with the team, just a supporter. :)
