This does not instill confidence in Let's Encrypt's longevity. It sounds like a cry for help. $250k may be a reasonable sum for an established company to pay

This does not instill confidence in Let's Encrypt's longevity. It sounds like a cry for help. $250k may be a reasonable sum for an established company to pay it's employees but for a company to have that kind of burn rate with out having next years funding secured is scary.
- imron 10y agoHave you seen their sponsors page? Multiply the cost of the various sponsorships by the relevant sponsors and I think you'll find they're doing alright. That doesn't even take in to account individual donations either. The point of this post was not just fundraising, it was because they believe in transparency and openness.
