OK- I've cleared all the hurdles getting in the way of doing this so it's time to make the announcement.
Friends, we're adding a new goal to the awoo.space Patreon- if we hit $150 we're planning on upgrading the servers to the next highest tier on Scaleway!
more patreon talk, bit on the negative side
Unfortunately we lost a fair amount of pledge money so that means we've fallen under our goal for double commissions which means we probably won't see 2 commissions next month unless we recover, but upgrading our servers is a big goal I know how to do now and I hope we can get to at some point!
more patreon talk, explanation of new goal
The new goal works like this:
1. We hit $150 and the payment goes through at the beginning of the month
2. We pull out the amount of money required to pay for the medium size server (currently, €11.99, which is about 14.17 US$) until we hit the $150 mark (fee adjusted)
3. The rest of the money (with fee removed) goes to our other staff members
Last month we paid @kyra and @thefishcrow for their work on the site. Don't forget that they too have Patreons you can support directly!
