Read the statement by Michael Teeuw here.
Considering taking donations to support the MagicMirror project. Interested in your thoughts!

@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.

(Sorry, too tempting…)
I’d definitely donate. I love this whole project.

Hi Everybody,
Thanks for all your suggestions! I’ve added a donate link (using Paypal) to the homepage, the forum menubar and the readme of the project (currently dev branch only). If you have any suggestions where I can add more donate buttons without being annoying, feel free to let me know.
If you want to go to the donation-page directly, please follow this link.
To all of you that are going to donate: many many many thanks in advance!

The link sends you to a paypal site with dutch language,
Not a big deal, but should be English as default :)
Edit : And also, Donated ofc!

@broberg First of all: thanks for the donation! I really appreciate it!
Your link doesn’t seem to work since it includes your (expired) session token. I checked the donate button config, and it should display an English form. I tried changing the locale but it doesn’t seem to work.
This is the official sharable link:
