Directly fund your maintainers with the Open Source Maintenance Fee.

Note: This uses github sponsors, which is a microsoft owned middleman as @[email protected] mentioned. I heavily recommend https://liberapay.com/ as an alternative. The idea of the project is solid, though

I personally think this is a good idea. FOSS is amazing but it needs some funding in reality. What are your thoughts?

    Seems like a Github sponsors promotion website. Why waste money by using a Microsoft owned middle man, when better projects like LiberaPay exist?

      Ah yeah i agree, i forgot to mention that. I think the general idea of it is good though. I’ll write a note recommending liberapay.

      Edit: fixed!
