Considering taking donations to support the MagicMirror project. Interested in your thoughts!

Donations a for keep going forum, not for resolving issues with modules. -
MM has been the most fun and at the same time useful project I’ve ever been involved with. I will definitely donate! And I wouldn’t have learned node.js and extended my Linux knowledge if it wasn’t for MM, which is worth a lot. Great work @MichMich!
I think single donations is the way to go (or at least the option for single donations). I think people are more hesitant to sign up for monthly/yearly donations.

@MichMich We’re currently working on a project featuring MagicMirror and would be very interested in supporting. Would you mind sending us private message so we can reach out? Would love to share more details.
-
Willing to donate for this awesome project and work done by MichMich. Prefer PayPal for donations.
-
@michmich I would donate for sure. Surprised that there is not an option already.

and could you give us some advice how much you need, for example : if 10% of the forum user gives 10€ each year it’s covers the forum server expenses, or if 10% of MM users gives 5€ each month you could work full time on it, …

I would definitely support one-time donations via PayPal and a monthly tiered Patreon. As someone mentioned before I like the idea of a Patreon tier that would be able to vote on what modules and features are added next. Personally I would support a monthly Patreon.
I would also not be opposed to a marketplace where developers could make money from their modules and support the modules that they create. Similar to what WordPress has done with plugins and themes.
-
I would also agree to support thru PayPal. Great stuff man. Thanks for making this community very healthy and supportive.
-
I am willing to donate as long as it remains voluntary.
paypal is prefered as payment method. -
@mykle1 I’m with you, but I’ll add PayPal as a way to donate.
