I got all the video stuff uploaded and managed to ACTUALLY post a mail message announcing this funding after Joshua stole my thunder :P --> https://groups.google.com/g/tiddlywiki/c/21yCCLI0E7s
OpenCollective is a pretty great tool and very flexible. Some background: Jeremy and I agreed to experiment under the "TiddlyWiki on Fission" project name to not have to commit to having a fully "TiddlyWiki" branded open collective all in one go -- to let us experiment a bit. The nice thing is ... if there IS interest in helping to administrate this and build around it, it COULD be transformed into a core TiddlyWiki funding destination. If you look at the main project page, there are some membership / backer tiers there right at the top: https://opencollective.com/tiddlywiki-on-fission The new file upload core plugin that Saq is going to work on is a separate project, lower down the page, and also has its own link and can set its own rewards: https://opencollective.com/tiddlywiki-on-fission/projects/tiddlywiki-file-upload -- It has a one-time goal, a company sponsorship tier, and we'll plan to add additional goal for different kinds of backends / savers. Also, on the "Fission collective pot" -- my idea for that is that backers would help determine who and what to fund. It really can be run as a collective. Tones -- this perhaps doesn't quite address your needs. With the marketplace that Jeremy suggested, we might surface patreons (or other channels) to directly support creators and contributors. OpenCollective and the community rallying might take a little longer. I've worked with a lot of open source focused creators and consultants, so I'm also happy to chat with you directly. If anyone ever wants to talk about anything related to open source, licensing, community contributions and so on, I'm happy to connect --> pick a time in my calendar and we'll have a chat https://calendly.com/borismann/global It may also be helpful to schedule a live video meeting to cover some of these community topics. Let me know how else I can help!
