We're not a non-profit organization, so we have to pay taxes on donations. Also, if you get too many gift donations via PayPal, they'll shut you down. This almost happened last donation drive where they issued a warning.

I may not be much more than a lurker, but hell, with how useful the database is and how successful my handful of transactions have been, I figure the least I could do is kick some coffee money your way

The breakdown in the OP is for all 3 sites right? I think some may not be aaware of SA or PSC sister sites when talking about maintenance costs.

Yep, it's combined for all sites. I've posted on both sister sites as well.

Well, I finally gave in and signed up for Patreon. I've been a freeloader here for far too long! $5 a month is well worth it to me! Also I was the 50th Patreon backer, hooray!
