A friendly reminder that not everyone makes an equivalent living, especially not in USD, and that feeling of "eh, give them $30, guys" could come across as "eh, give them more than you make in a week" 😅
If you make less than $30 in a week, you likely aren't on lemmy. I won't go into how much I make, but I probably make less than 99% of people on here. Difference being how I managed my money when I did have it so I set myself up to not have to pay rent, power, etc. Most things I do are pre-paid a year in advance to save money (for example, did you know you can get smartphone service for like $150 for the whole year?)
Citation needed AF. 🤦🏼♂️
For what? The phone service? Because I promise you lemmy is middle-upper class white people.
