[Funding] Consider joining GitHub Sponsors

Open leycec opened this issue 2 years ago • 0 comments

As of this writing, 412 downstream projects – at least some of which presumably generate revenue for somebody – depend on BLEAK. Yet there exists no .github/FUNDING.yml file redirecting dependents to funding portals for accelerating development.

In #412, @dlech notes:

If you know of some large companies that would like to use Bleak and sponsor multiple full time developers, I'm sure we could get there much more quickly. :smile:

It's kinda hard to sponsor a project that has yet to publish sponsorship links. I recently joined GitHub Sponsors myself on a comparable project and can confirm that the process was unmitigated bureaucratic Hell – but I'm also in a non-trivial tax situation. ...dual U.S.-Canadian citizen residing in Canada == the Ninth Circle

You're probably not me. And I have no doubts: @dlech and his merry band of collaborators can get this done sooner than I did. I regret not doing so earlier. Don't be like me, fellow Pythonistas. Do this to feed the future of BLEAK, yourself, and your cats.
