On any of the donation threads where it came up and he replied to it, the most he ever did was some half hearted corporate PR “apology” (ironic)

    I mean they still left the begging thread up with the “separate the art from the artist” message, and let Nutomic intentionally mislead users about “developer salaries” not going to support .ml. If they really wanted to be based they would have banned Nutomic for being a greedy little pig boy and told people to donate to Piefed.

      That was me [that crossposted; just thought mander had a good idea :)] 😅 Sorry.

      with the “separate the art from the artist” message

      That’s db0’s fault to bear :p He actually walked it back later, seeing how nutomic refused to back down his beliefs.

      Good idea–I’d love to do that. I’ve been swaying all admins on the team to (in a year or two??) maybe switch to piefed. I’ve also helped a bit with piefed development directly; even helping with some migration tool rimu/AP are interested in. Hopefully we can in the future :D

      Honestly, seeing how much of a shitshow that thread was; i think i’m going to delete it. I’ll wait for it to cool down in some days, and make a fundraiser post for rimu.

        If you migrate dbzer0 to piefed, I’ll send you a decent donation to help cover some of the costs.

          Appreciated. 🙂 though this probably wont happen for some time, the migration tool isn’t there yet.

        Unless Piefed gets a database import ability to port Existing Lemmy databases to that I don’t think Switching to it would be such a great idea. It would mean starting our instance from scratch and losing everything we have content, user registrations, communities. If Sublinks hadn’t stalled it could be a promising alternative, and maybe will be in the future, since it’s built around that whole concept of database and API compatibility.
