How much you want to bet they’d refuse, even if we gave the $500+?

    That’s the thing, they have no terms and seemingly the only way to contact them is through Matrix or Github, no email option or anything. So how you’d even arrange something like that would be difficult, I imagine. I still might try it, just because it’d be a hilarious way to get burggit on the join-lemmy page after they had outright blacklisted our instance from their instances list.

    But $500 does seem like a lot for the joke…but I do really like funny jokes. I’m very torn.

      Well, if you are up for it, I don’t mind pitching in a lot. I got a lot of disposable income and I owe you guys big for hosting touhou_nsfw.

      Maybe anonymously email them and trick them to promise to put you in the list if you donate?

        To update on this, it’s a total non-starter. Apparently these donations are monthly, not 1-time. When I went to contact the head lemmy dev, they said that it actually is for monthly amounts. So, it’d be $500 for 1 month of Burggit being up there. Which is definitely not worth it at all.

        The only way I’d have of receiving the money would be through Monero, so if you’re okay with that, I wouldn’t mind going through with it. I definitely do not have the money to do it on my own at the moment, so I guess it depends on how much you’d genuinely want to attempt and how much you were thinking of chipping in.

          There’s this too if we didn’t want to put $500.00 into it.

          Though people would balk less at them for refusing to feature us over that amount vs $500.00. I definitely don’t have the moneys to put towards that. For referency that’s over half of what I paid for the server box (without taking into account the upgrades I did to it)!
