Now if only we can find a way to buoy our favorite online forum in a similar way. We are 63% of the way through the year and that donation bar doesn't look more than half full.

I make almost no money.

I've donated $30 to Hubski this year because i believe in it. I can't do any more, but I call out any daily user to match me because most of y'all have an actual job, unlike me.

Hubski should do donation drives like NPR and PBS. I don't make very much either but I'd donate if service was interrupted twice a year. And I got a tote bag

I'd like to as well. I wonder what that would look like? An annoying banner add that runs for a week and only disappears once you donate? -mk would never allow it :)

We could have a Hubski radio station and take turns manning it.

Any ideas?

Replace the home feed with stories from a default subreddit.

I was going to gripe that I'm already 1/6th of the donations here and that it was time for someone else to step up, but then you reminded me that I don't make almost no money so I chipped in another $50 instead.

It's the NPR model at work.

I also don't make much money, but I have no expenses. Consider yourself matched.
