Donations would be appreciated

**Loki** · 10-17-2023, 12:03 PM

Hi all,

We haven't had much donations at all over the last several months, to be honest. And whilst I am carrying the costs personally, it would help to have some assistance where possible.

I know the current financial situation is difficult for most people, though, so this message is only meant for those who are in the position to help.

Many thanks for your consideration and support.

did you still haven't found a mean to generate a passive earning? if it's 9.63 per day divided by 100 it's just 0.096 cents, you should to monetize something,like videos for example why don't opening the "the apricity channel" somewhere outside of youtube on a video platform who paid you per views and uploading some contents,like thematical and /or educationnal content for ,than every member will watch on this platform, you don't need much, just a minimum of daily views like
https://www.brightcove.com/en/ for ex

you even could open your own streaming website if you like and uploading the full "Doctor Who" from the beginning for example

Will be the same people over and over while it's not a bad thing I think the forum is good enough to monetize for non profit.

There are new AI technologies coming out such as text to video where members can create their own "movies" if you like and be integrated into the forum

Whoever joins gets to enjoy the forum free for three months and still have access to some of the forum but if one wants access to the whole forum then something along the lines of US$20 for three month subscription should be more than okay.

Yes guys please, if you are able, we would certainly appreciate some donations to pay towards the costs of running this forum.

Many thanks!

By the way, is there no way to port the forum to another provider or get a lower cost subscription rate? I`m no expert on this, but given how things got less active than in the past 289 Dollars a month seem a bit much. Pretty sure we could do with a lot less volume.

Maybe less active, but almost everything got more expensive.
