If you don't mind me asking: how much are you paying per month?

None yet. When I came here I had been away from reddit for about seven months looking for a place to put poems and homer stuff. Really this conversation has informed me onto what exactly is going on here in the fedvee.

i don't use reddit/facebook/twitter/insta/toktik/et cetera. I am just looking for a mostly texty experience without me having to run an instance of anything with mild socializing on other instances.

As for how much I have to a "give" part of my monthly budget that last month was a give to the food bank. it revolves around the food bank, one of the three local homeless shelters, the local animal companion welfare places and then generally in August I buy myself a LEGO set for when the rain starts instead of giving because I can be a selfish fuck.

i have added this to the "give" part of my budget with a note to do it for sure right after an upgrade or major outage because my instance admin will prolly want some love after that.

that is my current strategy for not wearing out instance welcome.

Take a look at WriteFreely. It is more focused on writing long form and blogging and also works really well with other fediverse software.

I can never tell if this is an invitation to leave or what. I like it here.

It doesn't have to be a either/or. I am just saying: If you are looking for a place to write, maybe a blogging platform would be more suitable than a link sharing/discussion platform?

You can still stay on both.

That makes two of us, then.
