Unfortunately that philosophy led them to close down their instance due to burnout, so maybe it's not exactly a winning one ๐
I beg you, please take care of yourself if it's needed, take time off, relax, get help from others. I think you have a philosophy to not take money out of the donations, but speaking as one of the contributors, I think that's unfair considering the amount of work you put in.
What I'm saying is just do what it takes to not let it lead to burnout. I don't think anyone that understands the value of this instance would mind.
I'm not close to burnout but thanks for the concern. I don't run my instance like lemm.ee does for a reason ;)
