- justinclift 4y agoJust checked their OpenCollective, and they seem to have about US$100k there: https://opencollective.com/homebrew#category-BUDGET https://opencollective.com/homebrew#category-BUDGET They seem to be receiving about US$2k/month via Patreon too: https://www.patreon.com/homebrew https://www.patreon.com/homebrew I think their Patreon was around the same when I looked ~12 months ago.
- shepherdjerred 4y ago$2k/mo is a terribly low figure for a piece of software that nearly every dev on macOS uses.
- justinclift 4y agoThat US$100k seems to have arrived over the last year, and their overheads - from quickly looking over their OpenCollective expenses tab - seem to be mostly buying hardware for CI things, and a monthly GSuite bill. It's also pretty likely they get a lot of their resources for free / sponsored too. So, US$2k/mo might be fine (no idea).
