This is why I tip my servers, always. (Or the admin running the server.) It's worth it, to help keep the lights on!
It's "free as in beer." I'd gladly pay a few bucks a month for something like this. They are dealing with spam and 💩 . It's worth it!
I received a #Yahoo breach settlement check in the mail today. It was (quite) a bit more than the typical <$5.00 I was expecting, so I bumped up my Mastodon instance donation. Remember to #TipYourServer

Wait, waiter!
I never had a chance to thank you!

Welcome #TwitterMigration - and reminder to the already naturalized citizens of the #Fediverse!
These instances are generally labors of love, and with growth comes ever more labor! #TipYourServer admins out of gratitude for what they enable!
The mas.to admin is @trumpet and you can use the quoted links to throw some peanuts their way!
Find your #ServerAdmin and thank them. They make these communities possible.

I'm going to wander off & talk to some people, #discover some new things, fall down a rabbit hole of beautiful #art. That's what we do here on #Mastodon. It's different.
Welcome to to those joining & taking refuge from #Twitter.

@mike Ahhh. You chose a server with lots of room to type.
It's not poor etiquette; it was wise planning.
I like my server but I don't have 5k characters.
(Remember to #TipYourServer these toots and boosts and pictures require serious server space and monthly bills that grow along with the population of this amazing joint)
@donmelton @stux Yes, yes, yes, all day long! #TipYourServer, even $1 or £1 or €1

@ChristyCeeCK I think maybe #mastodon already took off. It has been sailing along for a number of years now. It doesn't look like that other place and it doesn't act like it either. Support your admin and #TipYourServer because these things don't just pay for themselves with toots and boosts.
But your microblog will be welcomed and your words won't be weaponized by others who seek to make money thru targeted, 'entertaining' harassment.
Remind tonight to #TipYourServer (and if you're on @zirk.us like me, you can find their Patreon here: https://www.patreon.com/zirkus).
2 weeks ago.Me: In order to be more Zen I will delete my posts every 2 weeks and instead of sharing photographs I will create links to a dedicated photo server to spare @stux the cost of archiving all my posts.
Today Me: Look at all my #nightcafe ai art! And remember that funny #toot from last month?
At least i do remember to
#TipYourServer
I use patreon.

@kriskosach yeah. It's not just you. Each server will have its moments of struggle. If you haven't yet, and you are able, it is a good idea imo to find your server admin and if they have a way (they should have) #TipYourServer
The costs can of running an #instance can really add up quickly with so many new people.
Ha!😅
That will be short-lived, b/c the #Admins are doing great work keeping each of their #Instances running!
Remember, this is not a business - they're all volunteers, doing this at their own expense - so if you can afford to, please tip your amazing *#server*🤭 - aka, #Instance #admin...to help them cover cost of running their Instance...😉
