    We are hosting Lemmy on our own servers, it costs us ( including all other services like mastodon.world etc… ) 1.5k€ ( it is outdated but it should be in that range, ca. Dec. 2023 ) https://blog.mastodon.world/

    But like said it would increase the costs a lot.

      Ok read that. But as a non admin or even a programmer can I learn and this may not be the right word to code so I can help out lemmy more? Or do I need to go to inbox after inbox asking for donations? again no sarcasm.

            You could learn Rust or Typescript ( React ). And then you can contribute to the respective github repositories like the API ( https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy ) and contribute there.

            It will take some months to learn correctly and then the Lemmy devs need to approve your changed code.

              Cool…don;t know if I have months because it depends on the next Hospital I am at. …But are there any links you can do for Typescript and React so I can study in my spare time.?
