Hi, I am not sure if I fully understood your model:
You said you will release the 1.5 K, 2K, ... features once you reach a monthly recurring sponsorship revenue of that amount of Dollars.
What do you do if the sum of the monthly pledges goes down at some point? Will you make those features private again?
I guess it's a bit counter-intuitive for me that a one-time release of a feature is tied to a recurring sponsorship level.
On the other hand, that's basically the monthly-license-fee subscription model, so I guess it DOES make sense.
- vgaldikas 6y agoĮ think certain percentage will just keep the donations on. And of course some will cancel them after the feature is released.
- joshspankit 6y agoThere’s likely enough people continuing to support. As well: if needed there’s exercising the option to set the next feature at the next highest MRR goal.

Nope, any feature that is released will remain public. > I guess it's a bit counter-intuitive for me that a one-time release of a feature is tied to a recurring sponsorship level. In the end, I'm selling early access to new features, that's it. If you need something now, and it's available for sponsors only, you need to subscribe to get access to it. You can always implement it yourself, the project is very hackable and puts a great emphasis on extensibility. The documentation is very thorough, also in respect to customization. However, sometimes, maybe especially for something like technical documentation, you don't want to be fighting browser bugs and edge cases.
