Alright so my friend's place burned to the ground, literally. The fire started in the flat above and spread. Everything is gone. I care about this person a lot and it's incredibly lucky that nobody was killed.

Please support in any way you can. They're very good people, I obviously wouldn't ask otherwise. This person has been involved in projects I've been involved with for almost a decade now.

I can probably get alternative options if desired.

EDIT: I should add that they're not expecting to get a new place for "up to 19months" according to insurance. Literally anything big or small is incredibly useful, this is an entire family.

$600 is more than I expected from here, genuinely really appreciated. It will absolutely help and be put to good use.

Can someone explain to me what the hell is going on with the comment section?

The goal is to increase traction on the post by adding comments which “bumps” up the visibility of the post, thus showing it to more people. The Amber and whataboutism comments trigger bot responses, thus further traction.

Comments affect the lemmy algo so people bump and trigger the bots to make the post go higher so someone who might be willing to donate sees it.
