Thanks! -- Andrei It works well for supporting artists. I support many people with it. However, if you're thinking of an application for the D foundation, I don't know if that's the right avenue. It would certainly work, but Patreon is more built for people who release discrete pieces of content, not necessarily charities who have less concrete results. There's also an option to make regular monthly donations.

Thanks! -- Andrei I support someone who is a pure intellectual now, and can no longer survive in the university system, with his radical ideas of economics. He provides various content at different subscription points. What do you have in mind? Nick
