    Hi All,

    I'm looking to make a donation to the Peppermint team, but I cannot find the site anymore. If you click the shop & donate link on the external link dropdown, it goes to a 404 page. Is there a new link to submit donations?

    Thanks. And Happy Holidays!

    Hey JonTheTwinsFan,

    Yeah we took that down a few months ago, We are in the process, of transitioning that kind of stuff into an opensource organization type platform, so that as donations are made they go to the organization, instead of an individual that way if a tragedy like what happened with Mark Greaves takes place in the future the organization can still carry on and not be on the brink of fading away.

    Our Website is donated by @linuxbookpro much love to him!
    Our build server/s are donated by HostColor
    Our most recent Mirrors have been added by OSSPlanet
    And of course all our forums and other file hosting is provided by SourceForge super much love to them, just for existing and providing so much to the communities.

    Because we have been able to form relationships with these organizations, it has really helped us, do what we do and a way lower cost than prior years.

    With all that said, once donations do get back in place, we would use them, to fund the Website to release that burden from @linuxbookpro. As well, as help support any other resources the organization would need as we go forward, since a lot of our, development is pushed and compiled on VPSs as we add more builds and services. that will increase the need for computing power.

    It is a bit long winded but I hope that helps.
    Please let me know if you have any questions
