p.s. Mr Modman, how about you post a link for those who are willing to donate to web/domain hosting or other forum needs?
p.p.s. sorry for necroposting
Necroposting is cool, make me reread what I wrote years ago
I really need to have the serversoftware updated and haven't had the time to look into this. I could spend the whole summer re-learning all that stuff, but thinking about having it done at the hosting company. It really would be a good idea to set up something to allow people to support freestompboxes.org.
What would be the best platform?
Gofundme? Patreon? others?
But direct paypal transactions could be better, since, you know, no service fee...

I've just learned that paypal charges $10 monthly for adding recurring payments as a feature to your account. In addition to some other pretty questionable charges.Seiche wrote:welcome back.
can you set up a regular payment via PayPal?

maybe patreon IS the way to go. You can't depend on people remembering every month they are supporting a cause with 1-2 dollars even if they do. There is just too much other shit going on in life.
Why does it have to be a monthly contribution and therefore raise problems with Paypal?plush wrote: I've just learned that paypal charges $10 monthly for adding recurring payments as a feature to your account. In addition to some other pretty questionable charges.
Would a one-time (annual) donation not achieve the same result ?

you're probably right, I was just thinking about a set-and-forget kinda thing. But maybe just a yearly reminder is sufficient.
I also don't know about the costs involved.

We were down again, for most of yesterday CET... serious issues at the host company. I hadn't expected us to be up by now, we may still face some downtime in the following days, the issues doesn't seem to have been resolved yet.
