    Did you read the kickstarter page?

      It's Indiegogo, with a flexible funding campaign. Indiegogo's take is 4% if the goal isn't reached (unlikely) and 9% if the goal is reached (likely). So if you contribute to it you will be lining the pockets of Indiegogo in addition to supporting the author of PDFy.

      @benatkin Or you could donate bitcoins... and bypass that entire process.

    > Why do we have to help him? Because I have a gun pointed at your head. You don't have to, but if you like what he's doing and want to support him, please do. > He can raise millions of dollars from VCs. The thing with VCs is they aren't really turned on by "We will have no ads or any plans to ever monetize this, and its source code completely given to the public to do with it whatever they'd like, even for selfish gains."
