Apologies, I didn't see that comment before. The target customer is large organizations and the pricing is typical for that. We'll be getting a pricing page up that explains the details. There are conditions and commitments for maintainers, see:

This is a commercial transaction; subscribers are paying for value, and we are paying maintainers to help us provide the value. It is not a donation model. We think it is a favorable transaction for maintainers because it is royalty-style rather than hourly-consulting-style. The same amount of work can be sold N times.
For donations there are a number of existing solutions and we would encourage people to use them also!

That's just not what your branding/advertising is telling me. I understand that's what's happening but the way you're billing it comes across like you're Patreon for open source.
