Enable sponsors?

[audrow]

Hey, do you have plans to enable sponsorship for lume? I like where the project is going and would be happy to provide some support.

Hi, @audrow That would be great. Thank for your support.
I'm going to enable it and let you know when it's ready.

Hi again.
I just created an Open Collective page for sponsorship. Take a look at: https://opencollective.com/lume
I will include the sponsors logos/avatars in the Lume website.

With the first financial contributions I will, finally, purchase a domain for Lume website :)
Thanks!

[audrow]

Great, I'm contributing monthly. Thanks for setting it up!

Thank you for the support!

Don't you have any plan to enable GitHub Sponsors? I prefer it to Open Collective.
I begun supporting Lume, but my budget is small. Open Collective's fee (for Stripe) costs too much for small amount of recursive payment. GitHub does not charge any fee to user accounts. That's nicer.

Hmm... I checked my organizations and I can join the waitlist for all of my five organizations whose owner is me.
Spain is one of the available regions of GitHub Sponsors, so lumeland must be available. It seems weird.

You can contact GitHub from here. They may take time to reply, but they'll help you.

Thanks. I just contact them. As soon as I have a reply I'll let you know.

Hi again @aiotter. I can, finally, configure Lume to receive sponsors, but it seems that organizations sponsorship cannot be configured for individual persons, but companies. So cannot set up properly.
I'm going to include my own personal account for Github sponsors (https://github.com/sponsors/oscarotero) for now.

@oscarotero Nice! Can you enable custom amount of donation? I want other options than only $1!

[oscarotero]

@aiotter Yes, sure! Thank you for your generosity!!
