Hey Beeple,

Two of our lovely admins, @alyaza@beehaw.org and @Lionir@beehaw.org are both young and not currently employed. If you’ve ever wanted to buy any of the admins a coffee, slice of pizza, or a beer, now’s your chance. Any donation will be greatly appreciated.

Here’s a little something about Lionir:

I’m a student and as I often do, I get carried away. I should’ve gotten a job this summer to support myself but I didn’t. I’m someone who volunteers on a lot of things both in my personal life and with my work online - this summer a lot of my attention and energy was focused on Beehaw as some of you probably noticed. Unfortunately for me, that doesn’t really help me pay my bills as a student.

Here’s a little something about Alyaza:

i am currently in the process of arranging the money to move out of my current situation. without going into too much detail: it is… basically necessary for my long-term safety and health to do this. i have some opportunities lined up which will hopefully materialize and likely cover the bulk of my expenses, but literally anything helps. any money you send my way will thus be going toward eventually moving out, and/or fees related to this.

If you can afford to do so, donations to their respective ko-fi accounts would be greatly appreciated. If you can’t afford to do so, please don’t worry about it, your support is still appreciated.

    Right now, Beehaw/Lemmy needs better moderation tools. That takes time/effort (possibly money) in order to build these.
