I'd love to bring really important open source projects to baqqer and support them with monthly pledges. I'd like them to be transparent and open with their direction and progress, while simultaneously letting the community there help guide and support their efforts. Does anyone know any great open source projects that would be open to this?
- hobofan 10y agoWhat benefits does baqqer provide over Patreon (for single Makers) and Bountysource Salt (for OSS projects)? How much does baqqer charge on the donations that a maker gets through it? I can see very little to no information without signing up.
- lowglow 10y agoWe help people, products, companies also grow through our community and forums. You can also perform micro-campaigns to raise smaller amounts of money for one-off required items. IMHO the experience is wholly different, because I wanted the crowdfunding experience to be much more intimate and supportive. Right now we charge 7% but only because we're trying to reach our server costs quickly since we're bootstrapped. Once we're at a break-even point we'll be dropping it down to 5% and remain competitive. Most information is (probably erroneously) here: https://baqqer.com/tos https://baqqer.com/tos
