Nice post! Nice site! I just added 70 links from PLDB to your site.
Some thoughts before I donate:
> I've lost faith in the nonprofit business model
Great! You will find a way to generate revenue streams. This is a good pivot! I would recommend going fully open source and public domain as you add a profit model. IMO public domain for-profit companies are superior to (C) non-profit companies. Profits don't make you evil, closed source and copyright does.
> every PR in a live Exercism repository should get a review before it can be merged
Why? I recommend just merging in. Quickly fixing/undoing problematic commits.
> $7,500 in monthly donations. That covers our server cost
OMG!!! Stop! This money should go to you 3, not cloud providers.
Server costs should be $0. This should be a local first, entirely client side site. Maybe 1 $50 a month droplet if you need some read/write user stuff. With less than 100K active users in a day, 1 server should be more than enough.
Finally, ditch the (c) symbol at bottom. Go public domain!
