Could we perhaps get a general statement (perhaps semi-regularly) of how donated funds compare to server costs over time?

IDK that we need that. The admins seem to have enough money to keep the instance going without to much help. Pawb seems to be fairly small so server costs probably aren't exorbitant. If donations were needed they would tell us. What would be good is some transparency on how donated funds are used. That's not required either but is best practice.

They do accept donations currently; there's a ko-fi link on the sidebar. It's not that we need the disclosure, it's more that if they're funding it themselves, I'd rather know that so I can donate more. Heh
