Very cool!
Hold on, is that a grant or a donation? (The difference is that a donation is definitive, while there are conditions, such as failing to fulfil an obligation, under which a grant has to be repaid)

I only wonder why it's 3333€.
@andrew_bidlaw long story short, it's due to our way to democratically split our budget.
We take 1% of our sales. That's ~ €17k
€10k of the budget go to the firsts "winners" of a vote we have internally. We had 3 winners so the €10k was split in 1/2, 1/3, 1/4 so €5k was attributed to @panoramax €3333 to support the threadiverse and €1666 for https://www.hackinscience.org/
Thank you for answering and honest cheers on doing that. I don't think people behind these projects have enough support or credit. And as little as 1.3k can be seen in IT, it goes directly into supporting their passion projects benefiting us as a whole (:
@andrew_bidlaw you would be surprised. Many projects are so short on money that you can make people so happy. Sometimes, even giving 100€ was life-changing for some people we supported 😲
Indeed. If only I wasn't in fucking russia. It feels like FOSS suporting may finally lead me to learning crypto, in non speculative ways, only to support what these chads are doing. The Atlants, bearing the world I can regularly shitpost to on their shoulders.
Thanks a lot for the donation! Weve added you to the "Gold Pressed Latinum" sponsors on join-lemmy.org.
