(Egg)celerator Lab: grants for women (cis or trans, obviously) and gender-expansive nonfiction filmmakers.
💸 $40,000 USD in grant funding for the production of their feature-length film. https://chickeneggfilms.org/programs/egg-celerator-lab -
The Icon Factory has a new kickstarter - to provide Ollie's Arcade free to everyone, and add an additional game to the mix, too.
But this is more than just showing interest in arcade games. This organization of indie developers deserves and needs our support. Just look at those little pixellated faces, how can you let them down?!
And of course, there are supporter bonuses at various tiers, so check it out.

Alright, I am loving these new Thank You emails for donating to Mastodon. Each one so far has come with a cute little art piece with some mastodon mascots running around.
Donate a few bucks and you can see them, too. :)

Bonfire is the lego bricks of the fediverse, creating modular packages to build any kind of platform you can imagine.
The stretch goal is a community flavor that connects with the threadiverse at large.
You can help them click a few more bricks together, with some interesting reward options for your donation (for a very limited time - hurry!).
- Digital and physical artwork
- A Bonfire website theme
- 1-1 time with the devs -

Hey folks, I know Giving Tuesday was yesterday and I purposefully avoided it because there's many causes that deserve your dollars more than us.
If you have something left, I'm contributing more to keep our community alive than what we're getting in, and I know that we can fix that.
If everyone who read this contributed $5, we'd be in a much better position, paying off backed-up invoices.
If everyone who read this committed $10 monthly, it'd pay off our hardware deficit. The hardware I bought to get us off the cloud, I bore the entire $25,000 cost. I'm fine with this as long as we can chip away at it... But as it is, we're not.
Right now we're $453 behind on monthly costs. The physical servers are fine at being chipped down, knowing we're solidified for years to come.

I wanted to spend a few Euros monthly to help the open social web.
I ended up donating to Emelia and Iftas. They are both working on trust and safety,
not flashy apps or cool features that a regular user like me would notice often, but vitally important to keep the Fediverse a safe and secure place for everyone.
If you can please consider supporting them or some other project or developer whose work you appreciate.https://support.thisismissem.social/

This post on Pixelfed about supporting projects and people on the Fediverse got me squirming a bit. I do support the instances I use the most, but I can do better. Not much more, and probably not any amount that would be meaningful, but every little...
Any suggestions?
If possible, please explain why in simple terms as I would very likely not understand any too technical explanations.

With less than 4 days left, PeerTube has a ways to go to meet the next milestone to add live streaming to its mobile app.
It's a worthwhile goal, as a current example - this provides a way to document protests live without the fear of being censored by big social.
But they are gonna need some big money, no whammies to make it.
If you know of a company sponsor that might help, please let them know about it!

Got a little riled up over another amazing content creator here struggling with funding. Thought of an idea.
It's getting close to the holidays. Lots of our fedi creators have websites where they sell merchandise and other things.
Why not create a site that collects all these merch sites in one place? You can buy cool nerdy stuff for friends and family AND support the fediverse.

11ty is getting close to their sustainability goal!

@mastometrics is a unique way to look at statistics about your own account - for free. It's even connected directly from your profile in the @IceCubesApp app.
But all that data and storage costs money! Please consider contributing to keep this service going - and if the goal is reached, open sourced to make it self-hostable.

Similar to how people have /uses and /now pages, here's my /fedifund page - fediverse related projects I am enthusiastically supporting through code, dollars, or promotion.
What's on your list?
