Hi everyone,
I want to take a genuine, human approach to this, and I apologize if I come across as repetitive or annoying. I’m speaking from a place of sincerity and honesty, and I hope this message resonates with you.
This site exists because of your support through donations. While I’ve tried to manage the costs myself, I simply can’t cover them alone. Over the past three months, things have been relatively steady thanks to the monthly donation reminders I sent out. However, this month I decided to skip those reminders, thinking they might feel intrusive to some of you. Unfortunately, this has resulted in receiving only a small fraction of the donations needed to keep the site running.
I’ve asked our hosting providers for extensions, and while they granted one, that grace period is nearing its end. We’re now just days away from the site being disconnected.
I wanted to share this directly with you, rather than reverting to the usual reminder emails, because I value transparency. I know some might view donation appeals skeptically,maybe even as a "money grab",but I want to assure you that the donation stats displayed on the site are accurate. We truly haven’t received the support we need this month to cover the costs.
I might be taking a risk by addressing this so candidly, but I feel it’s the only way to communicate how vital your contributions are. If you value this site and want to see it continue, I humbly ask for your support.
Thank you for taking the time to read this and for being part of this community.
Sincerely,
----
