Hey all,

I just hopped on the Lemmy train, and needless to say, I’m hooked. It’s a breath of fresh air compared to the corporate hellhole that Reddit has become, and I’d like to at least pay a little bit for it.

Unfortunately, I’m a broke uni student with enough subscriptions as is, so I can really only justify a buck or two a month. This is where my indecision arises - should I donate to the instance that my account lives on, or to the LemmyNet project itself? I’ve been digging around, looking at operating costs and such, and I can’t figure out which one needs it more (for want of a better term.)

So, what are your thoughts? Or am I just wildly overthinking this?
