Its basically a collection of communities, so you can browse multiple related communities at the same time. Piefed already implements this under a different name:

You are not logged in. If you use a Fediverse account that is able to follow users, you can follow this user.
This is already implemented, admins can specify a “suggested” multi-community which will be shown next to Subscribed/Local/All just like you say.
Fully agree that theres too much politics. Like you say too often about attacking some kind of enemy rather trying to understand other perspectives. For better or for worse, those seem to be the types of people more likely to use a new platform like Lemmy. Hopefully in the future they will also get tired of this stuff.
Thank you, all donations help :)
I actually got in contact with them yesterday, will probably have a meeting soon to discuss how we can work together with them.
Liberapay is the best option, because it doesnt take any fees beyond payment processing, and its also open source. Thanks for donating!
I see, or simpler yet a special badge which is shown next to donor’s username. Definitely worth considering. Thanks for the suggestion!
Thanks for the analysis. In addition to the monthly donations there have also been many one-time donations. I agree that it makes sense to update the donation dialog and popup with adapted text from this post, will do that shortly.
Yes thats right. Translations are also a good way to contribute.
Around 50k, it went back down from the recent high of 57k.
The real devs are locked into a server room with appropriate supplies of food and caffeine. So dont worry about them.
Yearly or weekly doesnt make a big difference so whatever works for you. Depending on the platform small donations may have higher fees though.
Right, updated.
Then you can donate via Opencollective. But honestly it doesnt matter, because lemmy.ml hosting is already covered, and is very cheap compared to developer salaries.
What do you mean by “upvote award feature”?
Afaik they also donate a bit, but they also dont have a lot of money to spare after server costs.
Update: For those of you who want to support Lemmy development without financing the hosting of lemmy.ml, know that the hosting is paid exclusively through OpenCollective. You can see the payment details at this link. This means donations through all other platforms (Liberapay, Ko-fi, Patreon, Crypto) are exclusively for Lemmy development, and not a single cent goes to lemmy.ml hosting.
Edit: Liberapay is the preferable donation option, as it has very low fees and is also open source.
Youre welcome!
Yes exactly.
