Almost all the servers on Mastodon and the wider Fediverse are run by unpaid grassroots volunteers that pay their server's bills out of their own pockets.
They don't sell your data or carry advertising, and they don't get any share of the donations given to the Mastodon etc software developers.
Please consider donating to your server admin, they usually have donation links on your server website's "About" page. You can also ask your admin directly about how to donate.
Hey, welcome to all you lovely people! Nice to see you!
If you want help with using Mastodon and the wider Fediverse, feel free to ask 🙂
I also run a website at https://fedi.tips which has lots of easy-to-understand non-technical guides for new people.
There is no such thing as a stupid question, it is 100% fine to ask about even the most basic thing that you're unsure about.
You can ask by mentioning me, replying or messaging. (And yes I am a human being 😁 I don't use LLMs or AI. )
