      from www.crowdrise.com
      Terms of Service; Didn't Read (short: ToS;DR) is a project started in June 2012 to help fix the biggest lie on the web : almost no one really reads the terms of service we agree to all the time. Background: The rough idea behind ToS;DR ...

    Hey y'all, I need a signal boost please.
    My friend and their mom are in danger of being evicted if they can't raise about 12 thousand dollars by the end of the month.
    They are both so lovely and good, their mom does so much community outreach and she really needs help right now.
    If you could retoot this or even donate that would mean the world to me and my friend.
    Thank you all <3

    This is a really important time to push free and open source alternatives to #Patreon! I've considered using @Liberapay, but was afraid I had to use Patreon to get the network effect.

    Please tell people about #Liberapay, post about it on Reddit (r/patreon), vote it up on Alternativeto, etc https://alternativeto.net/software/liberapay/

    Please boost! This kind of opportunity to topple a near monopoly with FLOSS does not come often!
    Are there other FLOSS #crowdfunding platforms?

    All this patreon BS has me wondering, again, how it would be possible to get some $ to people who work on open source and - incoming twist - *don't do a lot of coding* but spend a ton of time doing stuff like testing, wrangling tickets, writing docs, and so on. All of which is critical work, almost none of which is acknowledged much less compensated.

    #Crowdfunding question: anyone have experience using #PayPal merchant features to do recurring PWYC donations?

    Last time I looked into it I think it required some minor hack. (Yes this may be re: #patreon)

    There was a #crowdfunding idea of http://iFundwaterloo.ca but the perception was that citizens are already paying taxes for the proposed projects, and so it never took off. http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/kitchener-waterloo/local-crowdfunding-site-launched-in-waterloo-1.1386991 (and yes, that first link is dead now)

    I'm not sure the municipal bureaucracy would be able to deal with #crowdfunding a #Library. If municipal politicians even understood #crowdfunding in the first place.

    @xahlee That's not actually true. Newspapers and magazines, though they generally had some subscription revenue, were always dependent on advertising. TV and radio broadcasts (in the US, where most broadcasters are not tax supported) is wholly dependent on advertising.

    Why? Because few people would or could pay what it would cost to present their content without the ads. This carried over to Web sites and mobile "apps" for the same reason. Each individual has a very limited pool of funds, and so they are unlikely to blow it all on supporting a very small number of the sites or apps or magazines or newspapers that they use.

    Ad-supported sites and apps, like ad-supported newspapers, magazines, and broadcasts before them, exist because micro-payments is a failed concept and no other concept has arisen to fund so many content providers. Indeed, I am concerned that #Patreon and #crowd-funding type sites may soon crest and begin their decline. As these sites are the alternate funding method of the day, this could push even more sites into advert-land.
