It would be for more than just photon, a serious longtime instance. with the $400 dollars i was donated (wtf) i can more than afford this.

Would you want one?

    What do I use the money for then? I can’t just pocket $400 without giving something in return.

      Continued development on Photon would be giving something in return.

      I can’t speak for everyone, but I donated to thank you for the work you have done and to encourage you to continue improving Photon. That would be enough for me.

      I can only speak for myself, but my donation was a gift for all the effort you’ve already made. You don’t owe us anything!

      No, people give you something in return for what you did with Photon. I do not need to host an instance either and have no idea what you should do with the money. Nobody tells you what to do with it - if you want to splurge it, splurge it, if you want to invest it in hardware or hosting costs, do that.

      I don’t really need another instance (though if you want to you can), I would just prefer the money go to you and/or back into development of this and adding new features like a button in comments for image links in markdown
