Hi! 👋

I've been involved in writing open source software for over 10 years now - if you've every played a multiplayer Source engine game you've probably interacted with something I've developed, and if you've ever run a server for one of those games you almost definitely have. It is hard work keeping everything ticking along (and I couldn't do it without the generous help from my co-contributors), but that'll never stop me from experimenting with new ideas and trying to provide interesting projects to the communities I'm involved with.

At least for now all sponsorship money will be going towards hosting costs for my various projects, it is a fair chunk of change a month even taking advantage of platforms like GitHub's generous free CI offerings and other deals to reduce the costs as much as possible, but I'm also super interested in using it as a signal towards what projects people are most interested in - so make sure to tell me what you're sponsoring for!

Sponsoring me at $4 or above? You'll need to link your accounts so my projects know who you are (e.g. Steam for Accelerator, Discord for DiscoGraph) - watch this space for when it goes live! 🚧

@asherkin

$40 a month would cover most of the recurring server hosting costs for my various projects and open the door to adding more processing-intensive features to Throttle.

I'll do my best to have my hosted, public projects recognise you as a supporter and show that to the world (if that is what you want) 🌟 And of course I'll be keeping an eye out for your sponsor badge 👀
