No, it does, unless there is some way of sending money I am unaware of.

Every time I've received money via PayPal, I get less than the person sent. It's a sliding scale, the more money sent, the smaller the percentage. It's about 3% on $500, and about 10% on $20

I've done some calculations and updated the cost breakdown:

$20 per month for server costs.
$5 per month for server image backups.
$5.60 per month for remote backups.

$27.64 per year for domain renewals.

Total: ~$33 a month before tax, or $43 a month after tax.

If we aim for $50 a month then we have some leeway for unexpected costs, server upgrades, etc.

Seriously, even with Patreon fees, we should be able to eat that up and ditch AdSense.

Even at $50 with 20 patrons, that's only $2.50 a month.

I have some experience with doing donation drives. I really think I can do this. If it turns out to be a flop then we will think of something else.

I wonder if being a theist, I could pay my way in membership to avoid bans. I wonder if that could've happen. I only donated 25 euros once., cheap guy.

I am out.

Less than that now Big Grin

Seriously, though, if we get as few as ten people to each donate $5.00, including MCB and my contributions, it's very doable. Heck, with enough members here doing this, perhaps we could even rotate who donates so it's not the same people all the time.
