I think you might have meant Open Collective fiscal hosts replace having to operate a nonprofit organisation? Unless I'm parsing your statements wrong.
- ocdtrekkie 2y agoYeah, I try not to get too in the weeds on terms when describing OpenCollective to people unaware. (Also the company, nonprofit, and biggest fiscal hosts have historically largely been run by the same folks.) The core point is just that OpenCollective is not just a payment processor.
- nicce 2y agoI think you missed my point. Or are you saying that if I pay with PayPal instead of Stripe, OpenCollective gets themselves more money?
