Folding Forum

This topic has an amazing amount of input: - reach out to cloud providers for help, do you think AWS would love a press headline saying "AWS rejected storage for F@H project trying to tackle coronavirus"? Or google? Why the hell wouldn't they just give it out for free? - tax deductible don...

No one expected this sudden surge in donors. You can always donate financially. They can use those funds to upgrade their infrastructure. Also, if you are bored and want to help, install Foldit.

You know this attitude just makes me, as a newcomer, and many others I believe to just think "f* it" and never come back.

Do press coverage, ask and get help!
