Would you consider just adding a donation box? I for one think that it's very important that this thing gets developed. I think you're doing a lot of things right, and it could encourage proliferation of self-hosted applications. This needs to stand as a challenge to the companies that would own our data, and I understand that it does not lend itself to a normal business plan.
I imagine a lot of people feel this way, and may be inclined to donate in addition to or instead of their Oasis account.
- kentonv 10y agoI'm thinking about maybe extending Oasis with ways to specify a donation amount separate from the subscription fee, for finer-grained control over donations. It's most efficient for us to have any payments go through our existing payment system there, rather than use other services that charge higher fees. No concrete plans at the moment, though.
- ocdtrekkie 10y agoOne of the things that would probably be super helpful, is figuring out how to donate to Sandstorm app authors and promote the growth of the ecosystem.
- eitland 10y agoAgree. I'd be happy to pay app-size payments ($5-$20), preferably through some kind of crowdfunding, as long as the result is open source.
