I run this fediverse instance, our toy manufacturing outfit, a couple of peertube instances, a makerspace, streaming radio and a streaming television network out of my own pocket, since they cost more to operate than they make.
I also have a cafe and bookstore.
I have a crew of twelve(ish, depending on the week) folks working on these things. We break even most weeks, but we're losing a little more often than we have a little left over right now.
We're about to remove several of our biggest regular expenses from the books, and that'll shift the balance in the other direction (so we'll have a little left over more often than we're losing a little, and can give everyone on the crew a raise) but I have to get through these coming lean months in order for that to happen.
If you're feeling generous, and want to help me and my little north Georgia mountain community navigate some rough waters, you can:
- give me money: https://paypal.me/MountainTownFM

Thanks.
