@AasaMariaHedberg An alternative to would be / ghost.org/

can be replaced by liberapay.com/ opencollective.com/

and I'm not sure what is, sorry

*it might be worthwhile doing some experimentation by trying the services side by side before you commit 🤷‍♂️

I want to automatically list the names of people who have sponsored with Open Collective in README.md. Is there a good way to do this? (I think I can use GitHub Actions or Open Collective's webhooks, but it's a bit of a hassle to create it myself.)

I passed the review to open a :fedify: collective on Open Collective, and now I'm thinking about how to structure the contribution tiers. 🤔

@mastodonmigration @dansup @zkrisher I contributed, because I believe we will only get the new Internet that we pay for, but the only sharing options are Facebook and Twitter. Open Collective needs an update.

I think an amazing feature would be to let people easily peer role based ACL memberships between software.

basically "what if SCIM, but across fediverse stuff?"

like, if you have a bunch of users on discord, but you want to seamlessly line up their roles with one on github, it sucks.

but maybe it could be AWESOME in something like + , or +

and maybe you could accomplish this with the basic FEP SSO stuff we have around right now, or basic OIDC/Oauth,

but it would be super neat to communicate updates in group membership across activitypub.

is it just re-inventing SCIM/PAM? sure. but would it be awesome? also yes.

it should probably communicate the fedi handle, not the user's email, for privacy reasons.

imagine being able to join /one/ of /any/ community tools, and the process letting you swap between using many peripheral tools (having it only work inside e.g. @bonfire would lock things down too much, vs bidirectional grouping in e.g. )

A big thanks to every contributor to our for helping to keep this Brisbane Mastodon instance alive. We've pretty much made it through the whole year and we've got a few hundred in surplus donations, which we could use for the community. If anyone has any ideas on what we could spend the money on? Perhaps upgrading servers? A bar tab for a get-together? Pay an artist for some custom emojis? Let us know. Thanks again everyone who has helped out over this past year. opencollective.com/bnesocial

Question about , if anyone knows:

What's the difference between an "Organization" and a "Collective"? Can people contribute financially to an Organization in the same way they can with a Collective?

I set up a Collective for the instance I run, but could only contribute to another Collective as an Organization, so I set up a separate Organization. Now I have to transfer money between them, which is a pain. Can I just ditch the Collective and have people donate to the Organization?

If you like and use , you can contribute to our server charges (we didn't find alternative yet, so we stopped our cancel action).

opencollective.com/fedilab

That will help to maintain:

- Translation feature (used with Fedilab) at translate.fedilab.app

- Schedule messages at plan.fedilab.app

- Fdroid repo fdroid.fedilab.app

This is for sure the biggest challenge that eg @opencollective, @stackaid and others faces:

How to get people to accept money and (especially for ) how to then get them to make use of that money in a constructive way that makes it become a catalyst for an already successful project.

@tidelift kind of has their story clear here. They sign up maintainers for support to keep their packages safe and they sell those agreements packaged up with indemnification insurance to companies.

I am stepping back from the project with immediate effect.

I discovered severe lapses in how the Tusky project's donations (received via ) were being handled. When I reported those to the project's private "Tusky Contributors" Matrix channel the financial admins tone policed the feedback, refused to engage with the concerns I and others raised, and demanded the discussion be stopped.

There is too much detail for a thread, so please read write.as/nikclayton/stepping-b.
