Consider supporting Lemmy development or donating to your local server if you have the means. Peace!
I think the number is much higher if you consider all the people donating to their local server.
Plus your numbers seem off. For example, Librapay shows that there are currently over 300 people with weekly donations. Where are past or one time donors listed?
Patreon is paying out $2k a month, and has over 400 donors.
Your number seems much more like the number of regular donors rather than the total number of donors ever.
I’m no expert but 1 in 50 donors doesn’t even seem too bad
Honestly that actually looks like a lot especially since this doesn’t seem to include 1 time donations and donating to your home instances.
