Comment on How can self-hosted software make money without hurting the ecosystem?

Call it wistful thinking but I still believe donations are the way forward.
But it requires a bit of a shift in both willingness and ease.
Currently donations are also distributed pretty unfair, they go mostly to the user facing side, while crucial packages remain forgotten.
I would almost suggest some kind of system where you could set aside a certain amount of money, and it would donate automatically to all your installed packages, with some kind of weighting system I suppose.

that could be a new feature in liberapay or opencollective
