I'm curious who this is going to help--open source projects that would be profitable if only the maintainer had $20,000 of runway and some advice on finding revenue streams? is that really a niche that exists?
- marginalia_nu 4y ago$20,000 can be a lot of money or very little money depending on cost of living.
- bogwog 4y agoI wonder if it could help connect open source projects with potential sponsors, including teaching some basic business/sales skills that the average dev probably lacks.
- jujube3 4y agoWith that kind of money, you could hire a developer for one month, or pay for half of a new car! Truly a princely sum.
- quechimba 4y agoUSD$20,000 would last me a really long time in the Peruvian Amazon. It's almost 75 times the minimum salary. That's 6 years. During that time maybe it will be possible to get some other funding.
