    ‘no proof anyone signed anything’
    I don’t know exactly what kind of proof you expect.

    I agree that it could be more clearly explained. There was a fair bit of discussion on ‘Mastodon’ about it so some of that context might not be clear.

    Re the donation links. It is quite common for people who show up on the fediverse and put in some work to ask for donations.

    I mean it is a attempt to rally community to a cause but it was put together by one person off their own bat.

      How about a link to a public toot of the administrator where they actually agree to this?

      On their personal site of course, I am not arguing that, but if this is supposed to a community effort and an “official document/rallying point” then it has no place here, it comes off as desperate and unprofessional. You don’t make an appeal to ethics and for everyone to come together and then use that space and community to ask for money just for yourself.

      I mean I hate it that I’m being so negative, I know it doesn’t matter in the large scale of things but I’m just shocked that this is how the fedipact is being organized. It comes off as extremely amateurish and unprofessional.
