I’m not seeing any ads, and these servers certainly have a cost… So is this place entirely donation based, or what?

    You getting ads will give them like a dollar a year and you’d absolutely have to have tracking enabled for them to even get that, unpersonalized ads are deemed pretty worthless because you don’t click on things that you aren’t into. The extra power consumption from loading ads + extra spying on you will cost you about as much as the instance would get from it.

    If you donate 5 dollars a year, you’re doing more than you would by seeing ads.
