If I might hijack this comment, I'd like to mention Snowdrift.coop as well, which is targeted at free/libre/open works. ("Disclaimer": I am a member of our fully volunteer team.) Snowdrift.coop functions in a similar no-strings-attached style to Liberapay, but uses a unique donation model, called Crowdmatching, where the amount of the monthly donation is based on the number of patrons. The platform itself will be funded as a project on its own site (rather than taking a cut of donations), and will be run as a non-profit cooperative (getting governance set up is one of our top priorities right now, alongside a public launch; if anyone has experience/expertise and would like to help with this, please reach out). The best introduction, although visually outdated, is probably the intro page on our wiki: https://wiki.snowdrift.coop/about/intro/ https://wiki.snowdrift.coop/about/intro/ I wish I had time to stick around and chat, but it's a busy time in my semester right now; there's a wealth of adfitional information on the wiki and there's usually people around in irc/matrix (#snowdrift on freenode / matrix.org; the rooms are bridged).
