Thanks for creating the thread. I believe this is becoming an important step for the project to set up some kind of funding option, specially so that we can offer some reward to the contributors for taking critical responsibilities.

I highly recommend GH Sponsors are your default funding option. It’s just a natural fit for any project that’s already on GitHub; the networking effects and low fees are too good to pass up. It can be integrated with OC for oversight: https://docs.opencollective.com/help/collectives/osc-verification/github-sponsors |

+1 to opening up sponsorship! I don't have much to contribute to the discussion here, but wanted to say I dropped by to find out how to sponsor. I wasn't able to find any immediate path to do so and found this after a quick search. Of your choices, the most common ones I see used are GitHub Sponsors and Open Collective. I'd love to see this project on either (or both). 😄 |
