I preferred Flattr's model - you just donated a fixed amount per month, and they divided it by project. But it wasn't indiscriminate - you had to click on a button for each project. Now it seems they use a "smart, privacy-friendly algorithm [which] measures attention on websites", which is a no-go for me.
The problem with indiscriminate is that there are many, many, many OS projects out there. You need some curation, and that opens a can of worms. Maybe they could allow people to share and use lists?
- trextrex 8y agoFlattr's model seems really well suited for conveniently contribution back to open source. Does Flattr not work for software anymore? I'm trying to figure out why it's not more popular as a way to contribute to open source software.
