Old news that I just happened upon. Open Collective manages donations for many open source projects. Their reasons for discontinuing crypto supports are all problems that XMR fixes.
So frustrating when people throw the baby out with the bath water here. Imagine Henry Ford with his Model-T.
You have to inflate the tires? You have to keep filling it with gas all the time? Only 10MPH? Yeah no thanks, we’re banning your “auto mobile” project, this would never work.
This isn’t even a good metaphor considering XMR already exists as a solution.
As per docs they removed this option for individual users to contribute using crypto as a payment method: https://docs.opencollective.com/help/financial-contributors/crypto but they still manage crypto assets, as shown by the recent Ratatui invoice paid by the “drips network” https://opencollective.com/ratatui/contributions/751695
How do you get them if not through contributions tho?
