Scorche is currently paying $700 / year to host rockbox.org
Propose some of the donated money go towards the hosting bills
Anyone have a better idea?

I propose we help offset that with some donations
on top of that its time we updated the site
I think github.io would be a viable path forward for some of the load ~100

also I propose we make the forums a searchable archive

I'm skeptical of this. Is there proof of this expense? I'm also skeptical
of this idea of removing forums. I'm even skeptical of the motives of
those in charge here. It is unacceptable to me that the paypal donations
are not both public and in realtime. If you compare this random post about
I can't speak to the hosting costs and donation rates, but as someone who
ran the forums for a long time, I can see a very real benefit to 'retiring
the old and starting over.' People often want to respond to extremely old
threads, not realizing that the information is outdated and no longer

From #rockbox-community:
[23:52:41] I pay $60 a month for my server, but was going to scale
down a tier once I was able to rewrite things and be able to update packages
(which never came to fruition). I could probably scale down without upgrading,
I think
That's 60 USD/mo out of his own
Can we move The website to a sharing hosting? Also i suppose we are a large
community so if we donate each one aroud 10$ we surely cover all website
costs

I'm fully in favor of replacing the forums with something more modern, if
Discourse/ provides the features we need (which is not that
much, honestly). The Haxx-hosted portions (main site, downloads, build server,
git, wiki, etc.) seem to work well enough, and so I think we should leave them
