Vale needs more sponsors!
https://github.com/sponsors/ValeLang https://github.com/sponsors/ValeLang
Let's use this post's time on the front page to help the project meet its $3,000/month goal.
I'd love to help Evan work on this full time (I'm a sponsor). A fast and safe language that's also fun to prototype with is worth supporting.
- cinntaile 3y agoWhat's the difference in revenue split github vs patreon when sponsoring?
- Bedon292 3y agoGitHub: They keep 6%. With 3% for CC fees and 3% for GitHub. [1] Patreon: Varies a bit more. Patreon takes 8%, unless they have been on the platform since before the 2019 change and are still on the 5% plan. And payment processing depends on size. Under $3 is 5% and $0.10 per transaction. Over is 2.9% and $0.30 per transaction. And more if PayPal or Venmo in not USD. [2] So the split seems much better on GitHub. But the conditions are a bit different for using the platforms, and you can get perks on Patreon which you may not be able to get on GitHub. I can't remember who / which project but I believe I saw one that said something about a difference in taxes / VAT and not being able to give some of the perks on GitHub because of it. Cannot find it right now though.
