    hi peeps ❤ Running a small fundraiser to keep altbot and fuzzies.wtf alive and healthy!

    my server storage hit 100% full and took down basically everything. i got it fixed, but it's clear i need more drives before it happens again.

    altbot is free, open source, and runs 24/7 generating alt text for anyone on the fediverse who needs it. it's real accessibility infrastructure and i want to keep free.

    goal is $500 for a set of used (and tested for good health) enterprise drives off ebay. every little bit helps get there!

      @micr0 i just dropped 5$ to see the progress bar start filling, but it's still at 0%😢

      Anyway, I love Altbot and hope you reach your goal with the help of our fediverse community

          @micr0 Heads up for any screen reader users who want to support this. On the KoFi page, the toggle buttons to choose One Time or Monthly donation don't update their states properly at the moment, screen readers say One time is unpressed and Monthly is pressed no matter what you do. If you hit either Enter or Space on whichever button you want to choose, hitting either of those keystrokes does work.

          FYI I got confirmation from a working set of peepers and finished making a donation here to verify.

          I think there's someone at KoFi I can reach easily, will try to get it fixed.

            @Scott Aw shucks, I didn't know Kofi had such a bug, have you reached out to them? I'd be more than happy to boost a post in the hopes it reaches them so they can fix it

              @micr0 I've pinged an old thread where I got a few other things fixed up a while ago. Let's see whether that works first, might hit you up about boosting for some extra noisiness in due course though.

                  @TheQuinbox Sigh.

                  There's a checkbox in the markup to control whether a donation is recurring. Naturally they decided to hide it with `display: none` and `aria-hidden` (just to be absolutely sure nobody could use such a dangerously unsexy control!) and implement some inaccessible toggle buttons on top of it instead.

                  I donated anyway. Hopefully I didn't sign over my soul by accident. @Scott @micr0
