Life is even more tough for Lemmy devs, putting out fire left and right in the past few weeks. My concern is are they still able to earn a living when the majority of their time is spent fixing bugs in Lemmy?

I believe they work on Lemmy full time, and earn money from a grant - which I think is tied to them implementing certain features if I'm remembering things correctly.

That being said, I do hope that all of this isn't killing their interest in Lemmy...

Key point: they get money for implementing features, not fixing bugs, so I think for now they're surviving off donations
