Did anyone get $500 that didn't signup for GitHub's payment process or putting their non-standard `.github/` folder in your repository? This feels like a FOMO play to get more users to add GitHub mirrors to their project to try to dominate the Code forge space and tangential donations (which is why they did a loss-leading match program in the beta). I'd rather not prop that up; I'll stick to Sourcehut and Codeberg/Gitea.
- makeworld 4y agoAs I understand it this is only for users who are part of the GitHub Sponsors program. I don't think the .github folder is relevant.
- HellsMaddy 4y agoTangential: you don’t have to put a .github folder in every repository. You can create a .github repository and put files like FUNDING.yml in there, and they will take effect across all of your repos.
