I think we had a Liberapay where people could donate once but I can't find the link anymore

Kinda miss old site layout tbh

Remember when the Hexbear loading icon spinned in steps on a hexagon's edges?

Edit: nvm I found it! https://liberapay.com/hexbear, we should put this in the sidebar again

Also would be cool if someone could confirm that someone still has control over this acct, I can't remember the last time people talked about it

yes that's still the right donation link

As far as exactly who controls the accounts besides "the admin team" I doubt we'll get any info on that, for opsec reasons

CARCOSA posting it recently is all I need for confirmation

Honestly yeah, kinda weird that it isnt in the sidebar

[–] Chronicon@hexbear.net 25 points 4 months ago (1 children)

The little heart at the top of the page links it but that's.... not obvious
