I set up a Ko-Fi to support Save-Point and hopefully collect the $360/yr it costs to run this server. Link is below:
https://ko-fi.com/strangeautomaton/goal?g=0
All money goes towards hosting fees, my time, and my equipment. Thanks for any support in helping me keep Save-Point alive.
Do know:
PayPal charges me 3-5% per successful transaction. ( 2.99% domestic US, everywhere else it varies - although AU seems to be more like 1.5% )
Stripe charges me 2.9% + $0.30 per successful domestic transaction. More for people paying from outside the US
With the average donation size, Stripe eats up about 30% of the donation. Please only use it if you have to, and if you
do, please consider a larger donation to make up for transaction fees.

The current monthly subscriptions now fully fund Save-points hosting fees. Thanks everyone!
Next goal is to build an automated off-site backup solution! For that I'm crunching the numbers. I don't want to quote an amount because I don't know what the tariffs are going to do to my component costs yet - given 90% of what I need has to ship from China as it's not made anywhere else.
