I'm currently at €700 in monthly income thanks to my wonderful supporters on Ko-Fi 
You too can become a member & help support my work on making the Fediverse a better, safer place through my contributions to Moderation Tooling, Mastodon, and Pixelfed.
Tempted to say "the begging for support will continue until I can sustainably do this work". I've already sunk all my savings into it over the past 6 months.
I'm looking at my bank balance right now unsure of how I'm gonna pay my monthly expenses (rent, food, bills, etc). And that's with a financial sponsor backing me for a certain project.
@thisismissem Is this work something Mastodon Corp could provide grants for?
@getajobmike unfortunately they're unable to support my work at the moment, as they're squeezed for funding too.
(I actually applied and was almost hired as their third full-time developer on the Mastodon core codebase, but the job fell through due to funding)
(Also, aside, Mastodon isn't a corporate, but a gGmbH which is a non-profit organisation here in Germany)
@thisismissem you might approach NLnet too.
@getajobmike@ruby.social@thisismissem btw I hope this conversation isn’t too reply guy. It’s very likely you’ve already thought of all this.
