Our open source community has reached an exciting point: thanks to the incredible generosity of our donors, we now have a steady flow of funds coming in. First of all — thank you.
This support allows us to make the project more sustainable for everyone involved. We want to start by addressing something that is often overlooked in open source: the invisible labor that keeps everything running.
We’re proposing a 3-month trial program to pay our core maintainers for the essential (but often unglamorous) work of:
- Reviewing pull requests
- Triage and categorize GitHub issues
- Preparing releases
We believe it’s time to recognize the financial value of labor — but before we move forward, we want to hear your feedback. Join the conversation on [Discord] or leave anonymous feedback in [this form].
