Hi so, i've been putting this off for a bit but i think i need to say something about it

i run a bunch of stuff for free,, altbot, fuzzies.wtf, wellness-p.ing, ventboard.site and a few other things.

mostly i just quietly covered the costs of whatever the donations couldn't, using my own money. that was fine especially when i lived at home.

i moved to uni. now the gap kinda comes out of my food budget. which... is not ideal..

server and infrastructure costs run me $165/mo. donations have also been slowly going down recently,, which is totally fine, life happens,, but it's gotten to a point where i feel like i should say something rather than quietly struggle

if you use any of this stuff and can spare anything, even just a one time thing, it would actually really help

no pressure, things will stay free but just know it gets harder for me to keep doing stuff like this. love you all! <3

I hope one day this will be my Wikipedia page

I made a thing called Vent Board because I feel like anything I say is too public to be vent-worthy.

When I vent I don't want a response. I don't want someone's take on my take. I don't want to worry about how it lands on my timeline or what it says about me. Fedi doesn't give me that. No where I looked really does.

I also think we judge opinions differently when they're attached to a person. And I think that makes us hide parts of ourselves instead of just... saying the thing.

So I made a board. Anonymous, text only. Posts get automatic content warnings so readers choose what they see, but nothing gets removed for being too dark or too ugly. IPs are hashed with a rotating key I destroy every few hours. I couldn't identify you even if asked.

I just wanted to have a place to put things into words so the rest of your life you can just be yourself.

As always, Free forever (as long as I'm alive) and open source.

I drew Bubble, I am clearly the better artist as you can see

we hit the goal!! <3 thank you all so much, this means i can order the drives and get altbot and the server on solid feet again

if you still want to help out, server hosting costs are always an ongoing thing and any support there is always appreciated too!!

god i love how people ruin things

to be honest, this is probably a rare occurrence because this project I made for me. Of course its for others too... And its made for that, but for the first time I am making something that *I* actually really need.

its definitely getting worse.. my mh that is

FUCK I JUST STUBBED MY PINKY TOE AAAAA
