Help fund CubeUpload with money to help keep their servers up

Gamer_Logan819

Since like 40% of cubeupload is scratch users fact check needed, scratch should help out cubeupload by donating small amounts of money to them (like $100-$500). This could lower the amount of cubeuploads server downtimes, especially since now it’s the only viable option for image hosting.

How often would these payments be?

Every 3-6 months, maybe more, maybe less. I feel like scratch makes enough money to afford that.

Haven't they been laying off some Scratch Team members?

Would this be the ScratchFoundation merely advertising cubeupload's donation page or contributing money to them?

Most of the moderators, yes. The rest is unknown since no one knows the rest of the Scratch Team's roles. I might be wrong though.

Also, wouldn't this be like sort of advertising a fundraiser for cube-upload or something like a contribution to cube-upload of some sort?

contributing

I thought so. Might be interesting since I've never seen a contribution from the scratch foundation before.

That seems fair enough. I think it could work. The issue is, we would have to check with a Scratch Team member to see whether this would be feasible with their budget.

Yes, that is the ONLY thing stopping this from being added

I asked Paddle2see on his profile.

(to Paddle2see or cheddargirl or any other st seeing this: is this suggestion feasible?)

no support, if they wanted to put money into image uploading, they'd just uncensor assets.scratch.mit.edu

they were suggesting to fund cubeupload and not that

They censored it because it was being used inappropriately. The only way that works now is cubeupload. So they should help fund them at least q since there’s going to be a big migration over to cubeupload (and since cubeupload is small, their servers most likely won’t be able to handle it)

Or Scratchers could just donate.

Scratch isn’t laying off mods for fun, they don’t exactly have infinie funding.
