> I don't want the project to become in need of funding in any way: no dedicated home page + no forum = no cost = no need for funding. I want to be free to move onto something else if ever I get tired working on these projects (no donations = no expectations).
This resonates with me. I'm thinking about spinning up a new open source project, and I really want it to be default-alive. I know that I don't have infinite time and attention for it... I want it to be able to live without constant feeding.
I do think that donations will be part of the picture though. Similar to uBlock, the project will have some dependencies on upstream data providers. I would love to generate revenue and pass it to those upstream providers to support the broader ecosystem.
