We are currently the 2nd largest instance in terms of monthly active users. This brings a financial burden and we would appreciate your help about it.

If you want to donate, here's donation platforms we use:

A little note about about this financial status report

Throne
- it is fiat type and I will only add money here when I withdraw it.
Cryptocurrencies
- I will truncate numbers to 4 decimal places.
- It may not always be up to date. You can check up to date ETH balance by clicking to it.
- No matter which coin you send from Trocador, the money will merge into Monero.

Thank you for your support!

I would gladly send Monero [XMR] if you had the option.

[-] yay@lemmynsfw.com 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Hmm. Let me check MetaMask for it.

Nope, MetaMask only supports Ethereum or derivates. I've used MyMonero for it.

[-] UprisingVoltage@feddit.it 1 points 2 years ago

Check the post again, they added a monero option

[-] BigBeautifulWaffle@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 2 years ago

Maybe I've already did? I have plausible deniability ;) The Monero blockchain is not transparent.

But for the sake of transparency, if the admins want to, they can post a monthly summary of XMR donations.

[-] bobbiguy2122@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 2 years ago

Just subbed on Patreon! Question, are you holding off on upgrading the instance because of the issues with the search?

[-] yay@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 2 years ago

Thank you! I was waiting for captcha. But I'll upgrade today.

[-] BigMcLargeHuge@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 1 year ago

How would I donate via Ethereum or Monero? I've avoided all crypto.

[-] yay@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 1 year ago

It's about your platform. For instance I'm using Binance, so I click Receive, choose type of coin, enter address, choose network (for me always default one), send.

Didn’t know GitHub sponsors was a thing.

Neat.

(Also: new sponsor).

If I can make one request (not that I feel you should be in any way honored to follow it up or prioritize it):

The local blur policy/implementation is horrible.

I want to just scroll through content. Everytime I log in I must update the settings.

http://wefwef.app doesn’t even give me an option to adjust it.

[-] yay@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 1 year ago

We had local settings to auto expand, disable blur etc. but these settings has gone with the new update. I'm adding right now.

I'm not related to Wefwef or other apps, but you can try others like Mlem or Memmy.

[-] baconboy@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 1 year ago

Fully aware it’s unaffiliated, just that local settings was bad concept.

Liftoff! app (beta) is my favorite for one-handed scrolling, if you gnome say’n. Double tap to zoom full screen, double tap twice to zoom to full resolution.

[-] mk_nsfw@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Do you accept ETH on L2s? What about stablecoins?

[-] yay@lemmynsfw.com 2 points 1 year ago

I really don't know. I'm just using MetaMask for ETH. And not using stable coins because I don't know how to keep them locally, like MetaMask, MyMonero or XUMM. I really don't want to keep them on an exchange that has all my info.
