I did see that post previously, but thank you for linking it!

The info on the kernel is exactly what I had in mind!

At some point I would love if you wrote a guide on how you got started, things you learn along the way, pitfalls to watch out for. Not only around getting everything working, but how to upstream it to the kernel.

I know in a previous post you asked for help on contributing to the kernel, and now you already have PRs! That step has always intimidated me so seeing how you approached it would be super helpful

If there was a single solution that provided the following:

• allow me to donate a set, reoccurring, monthly sum. I.e $20, 40, 60, etc, to 1 service
• that service would then allow me to add “sub-services” like nixos, postmarketos, firefox, whatever, and it would split out my lum sum between all the subservices.
• the service was 100% transparent, vetting, and vouched for, with paper trails showing the money actually went to the sub services and how much of a cut they take.
• if it offered a local only program or app that would analyze what projects I used (its easy to forget about all the packages that linchpin everything we use) to help offer me suggestions on who I could donate to.

Basically a Spotify for open source, but instead of basing it on my listen history and contracts with record labels, let me choose manually how my subscription payment is split out.

I keep meaning to take a deeper look at open collective, but haven’t found the time or had anyone else (donator or developer) share their experiences.
