@Nifflas@mastodon.gamedev.place So, I'm on a different instance but as an example, on the instance I'm on the previous admin used to take donations on patreon.
Then for some reason they didn't want to run it anymore and for a few weeks it looked like it was gonna close down in a couple of months.
But then someone stepped up and offered to take over and that's how we got our current admin.
Follow
@Nifflas@mastodon.gamedev.place to clarify I think the current admin on the instance I'm on, pays out of pocket, but I'm sure they would ask if they needed help to cover the costs
