Hey Guest,
We wanted to share a quick update with the community.
Our public expense ledger is now live, allowing anyone to see how donations are used to support the ongoing operation of the site.
👉 View the ledger hereOver the past year, increased regulatory pressure in multiple regions like UK OFCOM and Australia's eSafety has led to higher operational costs, including infrastructure, security, and the need to work with more specialized service providers to keep the site online and stable.
If you value the community and would like to help support its continued operation, donations are greatly appreciated. If you wish to donate via Bank Transfer or other options, please open a ticket.

I'm not sure there is anything you can say in such a note that would be comforting to your parents, at least not for several years and much therapy after the fact at best.
You could write a novel on all of the reasons that it is not their fault, that they were good parents that showered you with love, that you deliberately hid your pain from them and that this couldn't have been prevented by them being more observant or checking in more closely, and they would still very, very likely find some way to blame themselves or wonder what more they could have done.
On a pragmatic level, it may be helpful to leave key username and passwords, bank account info, ect. accessible to them so that the logistics of processing your post-mortem affairs is easier (someone wrote a lovely post that I'll try to dig for).
