10 months agoI’m not sure if the Admins are paid, but it would be good to have paid admins, who also help post unique content too.
None of the admins have profited financially from donations meant for Beehaw. You can see this per the expenses on OpenCollective.
While I think it could be nice, we don’t have nearly enough to provide anyone a salary.
Or a meetup event to meet other Beehaw users (here in australia of course)
But the emus will get our lunch :(
Beehaw has enough to run without any additional donations for the next two years at the current costs so the finances of that seems well enough.
That said, I don’t feel comfortable spending money donated to Beehaw for things non-Beehaw related.
As for expanding in other services… Well, we already have enough trouble with Lemmy, I would not want to add more moderation hurdles personally.
