With Hetzner's price rises taking effect, I'm moving piefed.social to somewhere else. Most likely it'll be during a quiet time when few people will notice, around 00:00 to 3:00 UTC on Saturday.

EDIT: server migration is complete! Bringing it online in it's new home was a bit rocky so possibly half the posts made while piefed.social was down were lost.

Well, something simple turned out to warrant a bit more research than I anticipated:

  • Patreon requires an account. That can fuck right off.
  • Liberapay is for recurring support only. I only do one-time payments that I renew myself manually every year: I don't want any recurring payments going on my credit card. Ever.
  • Ko-Fi takes a 5% cut. Meh...

I guess I'll do Ko-Fi...

On LiberaPay you can just select the payment to not autorenew and it becomes in effect a one time donation.

Ah well, too late now 🙂 But I'll bear that in mind next year. Thanks!
