We don’t use cookies. Our code is open source. our ads are relevant to developers. 50-65% of the revenue goes to the publishers (devs). Examples at codesandbox.io, JSBin.com, phaser.io

I started up CodeFund last year in an effort to help fund open source projects and developers. This year, we opened up the source code ( https://GitHub.com/gitcoinco/codefund ) and provide ethical advertising. We don’t d

I just want to point out that there are a handful of initiatives trying to help fund the maintainer. I run the CodeFund platform. We provide ethical advertising on documentation websites and give up to 70% of all revenue to the developers.

I cannot agree more. Funding must play a part in the sustainability of open source. I recommend the Lemonade Stand document by Nadia Eghbal ( https://github.com/nayafia/lemonade-stand ) as well as the Sustain Report from

Over the past handful of months, I've built up the company Code Sponsor ( https://codesponsor.io ). In December, I had to shut it down due to the inability to continue on GitHub. Here's an article I published on why fund

The personal cost it would be for me (time from family) to continue to grow Code Sponsor on the side is not an option. I love open source and want to see it be sustainable for developers, however, I can't do so anymore at the expense o
