Also happy to chip in on the PayPal from time to time. If there was a yearly subscription I'd be ok with that as well.
Ads would be not be very successful here unless you can click through, haggle the price down and find out the weight before committing.
I can't help but think that a subs model would change the relationship to that of business owner and customer which may bring some additional unwanted hassles.
Would be happy to pay a sub myself though
Obvs not but it would be fun watching it, I think we're all almost as excited as you to see what happens with it.
What I might do is put up a plan for what I'm going to do to improve things round here, once it becomes a bit more clear how much funding there's going to be and how much time I can effectively buy from myself/my employer to do more development. I've got a fairly clear idea of where I want to go with it, but when there are inevitably features competing for my time then I'll basically do a Choose Your Own Adventure for you guys with it.
While there are some who reckon I ought to just pay myself for time served, I'd rather do it on the basis of things that actually change. Maintaining the status quo isn't an option any more.
On the bright side, I've already completed steps 1 and 2 - namely getting extensible image storage working, and creating a working server image for it (which actually involved upgrading the ancient Linux version on there through all the iterations up to the current version in an afternoon, which everybody "in the know" told me couldn't be done...that's saved me a hell of a lot of time). Step 3 will be integrating with Patreon, and then...switching over. I should be able to do it with minimal downtime, but I'm going to go at a weekend in the middle of the night just in case.
After that, barring any disasters, it'll be a case of building out the replacement software I started, which will get us to the point where adding features is much more realistic.
You mean you can't access any of them??
I clicked on a Flagged post just now and the banner ad at the top (which I've not seen before at all) was for Rentokil with the text splash: "Want help getting rid of pests?"
