cobalt doesn't shove ads in your face and doesn't sell your personal data, and thus is completely free to use for everyone. but development and maintenance of a media-heavy service used by over 350k people is quite costly. both in terms of time and money. as a student, it's rather difficult for me to handle such expenses on my own.
if cobalt has helped you in the past and you want to keep it growing and evolving, you can do so by making a donation!
by donating you're helping everyone who uses cobalt: teachers, students, musicians, content creators, artists, lecturers, and many, many more!
in past few months donations have let me:
• increase stability and uptime to nearly 100%.
• speed up ALL downloads, especially heavier ones.
• open cobalt api for free public use.
• withstand several huge user influxes with 0 downtime.
• move to a reliable and trustworthy cloud infrastructure provider.
• separate frontend and api for resilience and future decentralization.
every cent matters and is extremely appreciated, you can truly make a difference!
