posted on 28.04.2024 19:44 by CDB-Man

Happy 2024 Spring!



Happy Spring to all! This marks the 6.5 year milestone since we first reached out to the AniDB community for assistance, back in December 2017. We are grateful for all the community support that keeps AniDB alive. Our 2023 Summer fundraising post raised enough funds to support AniDB for 9 months!

With that, we’re pleased to announce our 2024 Spring fundraising post, and the winner of our 2024 Spring Patreon banner contest; congratulations aroptua for an excellent banner! Thank you also to JimKi for participating.

We hope that everyone enjoys the Spring!


Anyone subscribed to our Patreon campaign before this post should be charged on 2024-May-01 for your contribution to AniDB. We try hard to be as frugal as possible with your assistance, and try to avoid any build-up of excess outside of our set emergency fund. Because of this, our next fundraising post will likely not need to be until end of 2024 / early 2025. Refer to our Donations page for details. Thank you once again for your support and keeping us running!
