Dear all, Some great news: we are now accepting donations! Please do NOT share this news widely yet (e.g. on Twitter or Mastodon, or in a blog post). Before we do so, we first want to see if/how this works. If you have any comments, suggestions, or ideas, please share them. Specifically about - how donations on Open Collective work - how we can submit expenses and accept them - which (one-time and recurring) ‘tiers’ we might set up With your input, we can think if and how we should announce this more publicly. Key point here is also that we actually _don’t need_ so much money, as we have few expenses. Other forms of contributions (like code, translations, ideas, design work & user support) are much more valuable to the project. We want to make sure we get this point across in our communication. As part of this process I’ve also rewritten out [Donation Expenses Policy](https://forum.antennapod.org/t/donation-expenses-policy/272/2), and disabled the wiki editing. Comments specifically about the policy are now welcome there 🙂 So if you happen to read this and want to contribute, you can [find us on Open Collective](https://opencollective.com/antennapod) to give it a try. Open Collective Europe is our fiscal host - meaning that donations in euro will be the most beneficial and that 6% of our income goes to this financial host. Thanks! --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.antennapod.org/t/should-antennapod-begin-accepting-donations/249)._
