Funding
We accept monthly donations from Patreon and Ko-fi and one-time donations from Paypal. Any monthly donations offsets the monthly costs. The owner funds the rest, through stock dividends, savings account interest, and salary from day job.
You can help offset the costs by donating by using the following. Note, this is voluntary, but it’s appreciated to offset the burden as I’m hosting Sakurajima as a utility for the Japanese media fandom and the Anime/Japanese media Blogosphere/creative space. We will never require users to pay to use our services and you will never see any ads of any sort.
