We're seeing a pretty huge influx of new users right now. In 'normal times' we get maaaaybe 10 new users a day. We've had 300 in the past four hours.
If you'd like to help with server costs, we take donations at Patreon and Liberapay:

Anything at all is massively welcome - this is an entirely community-funded instance run by myself and a few mods in our spare time. <3
@Sylvhem And another 70 since making that toot!
@Curator Well uh... thanks Elon Musk, I guess 😂
@Curator wow, I am exited!
@Curator I obviously would, if I could... but I am unemployed currently :(
@Curator got back into patreon ☺️ <3 (Thanks for the link! I was searching for it D: ) Hope mastodon finally gets the recognition it deserves 
@Curator Can people from other instances also chip in? ~10% of the people whom I follow are from mastodon.art! 
@meisam Absolutely! I've noticed we've gotten some donations from people on other instances and it's amazing :O
@Curator Three hundreds O_o ?
