Something build-in would be VERY welcome indeed

Currently it's spread on so many platforms since recieving money from world wide is still SO hard in 2026.. :(

I have no idea what would be the best option though..

Another thing I REALLY want is proxy support for remote media instead of saving everything..

Pleroma/Akkoma/etcdoes so it so why can't Masto? I understand its not optimal but it does save a ton in media storage costs since we always need to store it for 90 day min

And yes there are plenty other media storage providers out there

But we are currently at the 3rd in the past 6 years and I really dont wanna move it again if it's not necessary

Wasabi is reasonable cheap but like i said, we need to pay for at least 3 months for each file stored so it eats hard if federated media weighs in

@stux Yeah, I would appreciate something built-in as well, be it Paypal, Stripe, Patreon, Wero, SEPA, whatever… something that makes it easy to operate an instance for a monthly fee, maybe with a free trial of n months.
I think that would help many admins and would secure the fediverse as a whole…

@ij Also a place where we can publish the costs breakdown would be amazing
