I would like to contribute to the project

Description

but Github has disabled Paypal payments. Any other mechanisms of choice?

First of all, thank you for sharing that you like DMS. If you want to become a sponsor, navigate to the main page of this project. On the right-hand side, you will find a section that reads "Sponsor this Project". You should be able to become a sponsor there. IIRC PayPal is supported as a means to pay too.

Hello there Georg, You are more than welcome. Once I had figured out a couple of documentation gotchas it went beautifully. Deserves a full installation writeup. Sadly they have disabled Paypal! Is there an email address I can use?

That's awesome :) We have a documentation section about blog articles and stuff - we can add yours, if you'd like that.

Oh, I didn't know they ended PayPal support. To be honest: I'd like to support @polarathene more. He has had issues with his system lately, and I was curious whether we could both support him. He has done as much for this project as I have, and I'd like to share what people have given me for that. @polarathene please let us know whether we can somehow support you (I could buy a drive or some other component that is reasonable priced, something along these lines).

Sounds like a plan. Let me know what part(s) would help and where they need to be shipped. See profile page.

Aww I appreciate that thanks! ❤️

My system is alright, I am just a bit disorganized and didn't manage to save everything when the OS crashed. Minor set back 😅


@polarathene please let us know whether we can somehow support you (I could buy a drive or some other component that is reasonable priced, something along these lines).

I've sent @g40 an email with some links / suggestions. Best way to reach me publicly via DM is probably via my LinkedIn.

I don't have any component needs at present that stand-out to suggest, but more storage is always welcome 👍 (I very much like Samsung / Crucial for storage, Samsung has a great T series product line for reliable external USB SSDs)


If anyone else lands here, I am intentionally not part of the project GH sponsorship. While the support is appreciated, it can sometimes come with a feeling for me of obligation / responsibility in exchange, which I try to remain detached from.

@g40 I hope the information from @polarathene found you well :)

In case you consider the price for a given product a bit too high, please reach out to me and I will add a bit of financial support that I received from GH Sponsors, probably via PayPal.

Another solution that I just came to my mind is https://buymeacoffee.com/. This way, @polarathene, you could share a link with us here and supporters can choose the amount on their own, which makes it easier for everyone :) BuyMeACoffee does not support PayPal either, but it offers more methods like Debit Card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, which is more flexible.

I am also happy to chime in if there is a requirement for anything you guys need. DMS is so awesome, you should open a github issue section just for cudos messages. :)
