This is slightly off-topic, but I didn't notice the donation button in the sidebar until typing ⌘+F, "donation"[1]. My inner patio11 thinks that evilsocket is missing out on some cash-moneys. It's probably a good idea to make a more prominent donation widget and add a call to action at the bottom of the post.
Edit: Digging deeper (actually clicking on the donate button), I see https://pledgie.com/campaigns/22257 https://pledgie.com/campaigns/22257 and it makes me sad. The video is dead, and it's unclear what donating will help with. Will it add new features? Is it to support ongoing development? Does the team have any previous work that shows what they're capable of?
If you want to improve your donation page, I think NeoVim[2] is a good example to follow. The author explains what NeoVim is, what's been done so far, what he'll do with the money, and why he's the right one for the job.
1. That didn't find it. It just scrolled the page so my eye noticed the button. You'd have to search for "sponsor" to find the widget.
