Lemmy's current donation drive is almost reaching 1/3 of their recurring donation goal. If the goal is reached, they'll be able to fund three full time developers. I encourage anyone who can spare ~$10/mo to check the donation page: https://join-lemmy.org/donate

Recently I moved my instance to a cheaper host and use the money I saved for recurring donation to Lemmy. Heck, I probably should host it on my closet for free and donate the money used for renting the VPS but my HDD is so loud it drove me crazy, it's clicking non-stop when I host a Lemmy instance there

it's clicking non-stop Time for a new HDD, friend. Preferably an SSD

Don't wanna spend money to upgrade the closet junk because that's where retired stuff from other devices ended up. Eventually an old SSD would ended up there though.

Yeah but the old ssd won’t click
