Flattr was a kind of a version of that (although billed as "donations"), and it recently shut down. https://flattr.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

There was https://flattr.com/ and, more recently, https://twitter.com/coil But, yes, a complete chicken-and-egg problem. - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

I think Flattr does exactly this https://flattr.com/ but it looks like they may have changed their business model recently. - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

This kind of looks like https://flattr.com/ but specifically for dev/dependencies. Not sure I like that there's "only" a two-month limit in which funds can be claimed, though. Some developers could be very busy or get caught up with other stuff and not hear about their accumulated funds before the "expire". Some might also think it's a phishing scam if they haven't heard of StackAid before. - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago

I think this is one of the problems flattr tries to solve. Instead of multiple micro transactions you make one larger transaction each month to flattr, who then divides it up to all the creators you want to support. I don't know how Patreon does it, if they make one charge for each creator you support I guess the transactions fees can become a large part of the total amount. https://flattr.com/. - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago

His website has a Donorbox "Donate" button that lies at the top menu bar of the website which is visible on every page. There is even a page where there's a "Donorbox" button with a few more options for donating, in the middle of another page. Source: 6 months ago

I’ve used https://donorbox.org/ for multiple non-profits. I highly recommend. Source: about 1 year ago

> "But I Have No Choice!" > I see this argument pop-up frequently when taking to design leaders or developers. I call bullshit on this excuse. You absolutely have the choice to avoid implementing bad designs - that's your job! Either you're not fighting hard enough against those pushing for it, or you're just trying to build a "pretty" portfolio. sigh I'm so tired of this absolutist, ranty way of thinking.... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago
