Joke’s on you, at the work I’m in we are running a project 32 months late.

Young intern. Only now, at the prerelease meeting, do you understand. Your coding skills are no match for the requirement of the client. You have added the tasks for your lack of vision. Now, young intern, you will refactor.
Piefex! Pixelfie! Fedfed! I always get them mixed up!!! I’m Fedfed up with it! XD
Thanks for the notice.
Also interesting note on mbin, I tend to forget it can do that and it has also a lot of other niceties, but I have experimented very little with mbin. My account sits 3 weeks unused
Then the next best thing to do is to support instances directly. I’d guess most of them have a tip jar or donation box.
Be aware that if supporting unsavory people is your issue, you might want to skip some payment processors and pay the instance hoster directly. Some payment processors, like PayPal or Stripe, are into some unsavory stuff such as targetting sex workers, or appropriating your savings if you post speech they disagree with, or blocking access to service in countries of the third world.
And I’d ask ten people before a machine. If I had to ask a machine, then I’d have to ask 9 people anyway just to verify if the machine answer is any trustable; after all, the entire point is I couldn’t do it myself.
I just don’t want my opinion to be censored for political reasons. That’s what I had hoped for from Lemmy – not some propaganda bullshit. Do you really see this platform as a counterpart to Truth Social?
Literally look at Truth Social. Or better, don’t. For a social platform to be healthy, it needs to be censored for poitical reasons. It’s just the political reasons have to be about, and for, good.
Just to be real:
Every instance is an example of arbitrary censorship. It’s just that .ml is specifically about a kind of censorship you don’t like.
All that said, there is no “should”. Donations are voluntary, they are not the only way to contribute to the development of the fediverse, and there is already both alternatives and competition, and you could support those instead. I hear Pixelfed is making the rounds.
Why would I do that when I can talk to a human? (or, at least, something in the internet that pretends to be that)
Which the answer is: never. If they did, by definition they would not be competent (unless they are being specifically trained in how to avoid code slop).
And you are sure it’s not spewing hallucinations or neo-fascism in a language you don’t understand… why?
If you can read the code it writes and modify it, a project manager can remove that time from you and take the AI slop direct to production.
On the one hand, it’s a shame in general, as Proton has truly been a pesky thorn on the foot for Linux gaming. There’s a world of difference between having native, first-class support, and basically running every game on an emulator that is on a lease.
In English I guess it would be something like “mother-in-law”.
