😂 Oh, the Guardian's secret sauce for thriving without a paywall: relentless pop-ups and guilt-inducing pleas for donations! Who needs a paywall when you can just bombard readers with a thousand reminders to cough up some cash? 💸👏

Intelligencer · How the ‘Guardian’ US Flourishes Without a PaywallBy Charlotte Klein

Bin gerade mal wieder die Finanzen für trashserver.net und metalhead.club durchgegangen und es sieht weiterhin gut aus!

4 Dauerspender sind leider entfallen - entweder, weil sie ihre Daueraufträge auslaufen haben lassen oder entfernt haben - oder weil sie statt eines Dauerauftrags offenbar doch nur einen Einzelauftrag eingestellt haben ;-)

Ist aber nicht tragisch - wir stehen weiterhin sehr gut da. Bin immer noch sehr stolz auf die Community hier! Metalhead.club gibt es seit bald 8 Jahren! Und das nur auf Basis eurer Spenden! 🥳

I just went through the finances for trashserver.net and metalhead.club again and things are still looking good!

Unfortunately, 4 standing donors have dropped out - either because they let their standing orders expire or removed them - or because they apparently only set up a single order instead of a standing order ;-)

But that's not tragic - we're still doing very well. I'm still very proud of the community here! Metalhead.club has been around for almost 8 years! And that's only thanks to your donations! 🥳

Don't 'splain me, m8!

Their figleaf exuses are not legitimate and @signalapp's @Mer__edith knows that...

  • After all, @monocles doesn't require any #PII at all and they are in fact sustainable as in not requiring #donations, since they are user-financed (subscription)...

CURRENT STATUS: €2,980/€50,000

I’ve been informed that unfortunately the previous medication did not help with Yazan’s issue, so they need to try again with a different medication. The new medication will cost €250.

This is also quite time sensitive as due to the ceasefire violation by Israel, it will only become more difficult and expensive in the future to obtain medication due to the closed crossings.

Please donate or reblog.
