@Tony @Folklore @Frank @fknretardlol @vitalis @spacemanspiff @ForbiddenDreamer @adequate Yeah. You're telling me. I've been operating at a loss for every month but 2. But I'm doing it out of pocket still because people rely on the service. It's being run as efficient as possible with the database and storage isolated on the same hypervisor with local backups and offsite. But with the lack of people now it costs me about double what I charge for it every month. so I have to get this moved when I can. again, I'm waiting
@Tony @Folklore @Frank @fknretardlol @vitalis @BillingtonYVR @koropokkur @spacemanspiff @ForbiddenDreamer @adequate Maybe you can explain to other people who whine about poast why we do what we do. Mind you, I could tell you to kill yourself if you were trans and the owner of our ISP wouldn't give single fuck since we are more or less deplatformable now. We adhere to our rules, the ISP knows our rules. They know we act within minutes but no less than an hour on any report. They know we have automated moderation for a lot of shit that to date has a 0 fault rate I would like to add.

I spoke at length in 2021 but I will tell you the same thing I said in the past: there are three boogeymen of the "free and open internet" that is 1. dox as definited as information somebody has not posted themselves online, we limit this to the space we occupy -- if you post your dox outside of poast it's off limits unless you post it here. 2. verifiable or credible threats -- if you post a threat on here especially with motive or a plan it will be reported to authorities. 3 - illegal content such as revenge porn, csam, etc
@graf @Folklore @Frank @fknretardlol @vitalis @BillingtonYVR @koropokkur @spacemanspiff @ForbiddenDreamer @adequate i don't think there will ever be money to be made here.

My painting business did 20-30k/month at a 60% margin.

When that was happening i randomly bought 6k in hardwarde and wrote it off as a business expense because i also hosting my companies website so it worked.

The point is not to make money from this. The point is to make money and bury this in line items. as tax write offs.

If i can create a business again that does 300-500k per year (I have in the past and I'm more than happy to show you the irs docs proving it) then it becomes a legitimate tax write off.

My point being - you will never make money "hosting" but you can make money providing a service for soemthing else and wrap this into it.

Then the faggot jobless trannies will have a much harder time piercing the corporate veil.

idk man i don't want to be a dick but i currently operate an s-corp and like it is possible...i've done it before i just need to not go bankrupt from being a retard lol
@graf @BillingtonYVR @Folklore @ForbiddenDreamer @Frank @adequate @fknretardlol @koropokkur @spacemanspiff @vitalis Tell you what mr graf. I have a software right now im about 80% done writing it. the logic is solid. The software is optimized to collect payments . I think it could optimize and probably increase poast donations. It's a formated in a way that corporations use collections to collect money. If you would like, I will give it to you for free to collect more donations from users. Think of it like a "sales bot". Its only goal is to get more money. If you would like I'll give it to you for free as a trial.

If it works, maybe you give me a positive review so I can get some more commercial customer interested.
@Tony @Folklore @Frank @fknretardlol @vitalis @BillingtonYVR @koropokkur @spacemanspiff @ForbiddenDreamer @adequate how in the FUCK are you going to collect money from people who literally cant afford it? The people on poast who donate some of them cant even afford what they agree to and month after month it gets declined. Its bothersome that there are people who use poast who dont donate but I'm not going to force somebody to do it man so the people who can already have it integrated into the platform and they get badges and stuff for it. why the fuck would I pay you a fee to get nothing in return? are you going to go out on daytona beach and tell people to sign up to poast? no? so why are you entitlted to something I already get
@graf @Folklore @Frank @fknretardlol @vitalis @BillingtonYVR @koropokkur @spacemanspiff @ForbiddenDreamer @adequate so couple of points. In this instance, no i would never force anyone to pay ever.

Simple we would create a pipeline that encourages paying. And if you can't, no shame. But if you can, you should do whats right, and donate.

We simply have a platform which encourages donations.

Thats it. If you can pay $1 do it. If you can pay $100 do it. but eitherway you are valued.

If you'd like to be a "major" contributor and give $200 for a special badge, do it.

It is about optimizing cashflow. Not your feelings or theirs. Nothing changes but we optimize for maximum cash flow.
@Tony @Folklore @Frank @fknretardlol @vitalis @BillingtonYVR @koropokkur @spacemanspiff @ForbiddenDreamer @adequate I asked you twice what you are offering to me and you gave me zero response. I even joked asking you if you are going to recruit people for poast from a beach. You can't get money from a stone dude. The people here who are donating are already the people who can afford it. Trying to shake them for more makes you look ilke a fucking jew and the furhter this goes on the more you seem like one to me
@graf @Folklore @Frank @fknretardlol @vitalis @BillingtonYVR @koropokkur @spacemanspiff @ForbiddenDreamer @adequate jesus christ. I dont want anything from you. I think that implimenting a corporate style donation pileline would make your more money.

Thats it. I'll try it for free. I want nothing from you.

I'm not some dev rando. I have no skin in this game. I just think i can sell your service better than you do now. Thats it.

I want nothing.

@Tony @Folklore @Frank @fknretardlol @vitalis @BillingtonYVR @koropokkur @spacemanspiff @ForbiddenDreamer @adequate >so angry. I just think i could help you raise more money. Thats it. Why you so mad? lol.
Couldn't be further from mad. I'm eating yakisoba. My life is more complete now than it's ever been. Women all over the place are pining after me

>I know the space, and i think we can out perform what you are currently doing.
You don't know shit about fedi. you know what you talk about with your handful of people you normally socialize with. You're a nobody in the grand scheme of things. I don't mind helping you but you are welcome to "out perform" poast. Please, I want you to

>Don't you need that? you're already operating at a loss so anything would be better?
The moment I start making money from poast is probably the moment I lose interest in it. My father always told me "Don't ever do something you love as a job because you will learn to hate it" so at that point I would probably just hand it to yockey because I know he has no jewish ties and stand on a board for decisions or something gay

Go to bed faggot
@graf @Folklore @Frank @fknretardlol @vitalis @BillingtonYVR @koropokkur @spacemanspiff @ForbiddenDreamer @adequate then have your great life lol idk?

you do man?

what do you want me to say?

you said you'd invite me to stuff (doubtfull) but idk if we are going to argue its fine, i dont want it anyway.

I know how to sell stuff. i'm bad at most things. I dont have many skills, but i can sling product like no ones business. Its like my thing. Its what im good at. If thats not relevant to you and you're goals thats totally fine!
@graf @Folklore @Frank @fknretardlol @vitalis @BillingtonYVR @Deplorable_Degenerate @koropokkur @spacemanspiff @ForbiddenDreamer @adequate you know I believe what I said, I think we can improve your collections from users but whatever illl admit it, I had too many shots.

So whatever ill retire to my kitties and go to bed πŸ™„

Idk, you know, I work my dick off and no one ever respects me. It’s fine but like it’s annoying: whatever
