Patreon (https://www.patreon.com/ https://www.patreon.com/) may also be an option for this.
I'm currently using Joplin (https://joplin.cozic.net/ https://joplin.cozic.net/) for note-taking. It has similar popularity on Github as Notable, and developer has a patreon account for ~$130/month.
While that's not full-time, it's a start of a paying community, which is very valuable in itself.
Once a community like that is established, you can implement other suggestions like selling packages, hosted versions etc. with discounts for your patrons etc. Many ways to go about adding value (and getting paid for it), once people trust you with their money.
- fabiospampinato 8y agoIMHO it's next to impossible to completely fund the project via Patreon or similar, if Joplin's developer after all this time is only receiving ~$130/month I think it would make more sense to me to self-fund it until it's profitable.
- dhruvkar 8y agoExactly. Patreon may not be a full time income, but it's starts your paying community, which is a valuable step in the right direction.
