They are an American tech company.

From what I remember, they did try to heavily raise fees and worsen the experience on their platform "my next trillion users ... life changing blah blah .. my ARPU", but then backed off when they got public pushback. They will do it again when they think they can get away with it.

Better to use something like liberapay.

That's what I use to donate to Piefed development and I've been meaning try and pitch this platform to my Patreon list.
