@mxtthxw As far as I'm aware, it is. I really like the look of both #Liberapay & #Comradery, but since they both only do recurrent donations, a la Patreon, they're not so useful for musicians.
Which one accepts direct #SEPA bank transfer without need to go through 3rd party, such as #Stripe or, worse, #PayPal? Which one is community friendly. Which one respects donators #privacy?
We're looking into some funding options for #MagpieMarket and have set up a page on #LiberaPay for anyone interested in providing financial contributions while we explore other avenues. These will help cover the cost when we eventually spin up a dev instance, and help us get anyone working on the project compensated (hopefully fairly) for their time. @amthecoat can speak more about what we're looking into if you have any questions.
When using #Liberapay to receive donations, I'm curious what data is shared with #Stripe.
Does Stripe see the username and/or email address of the Liberapay account receiving donations?
I am hoping that Stripe cannot see this information and instead sees the ID number of the account or some other private identifier. I would like to protect my online identity from my bank and other entities that know my real-life legal identity.
I have not created a Stripe account yet, and I am curious about the process and data requirements.
What data is required to create a Stripe account for an individual for the purpose of receiving donations?
When creating a Stripe account, does Stripe require a photo ID for identity verification?
#Privacy is important to me because I'm trans and live in the USA.
@amadeus #Liberapay can be used for one-time payment, too. I don't understand why this is not an option directly, it's kind of hidden, just pay and don't activate automatic recurrence.
I really wished @Liberapay would integrate a one-time payment option directly. Recurrent donations are a blocker for many people.
Salut @thelinuxEXP, je viens juste de te faire un petit don via #LiberaPay. C’est pas grand-chose, mais j’espère que ça t’aidera un peu à continuer à faire et partager ton super contenu. 😉
In order to sustainably translate, review and grow 80+ pages from my current Portuguese-language material-aulas (Python + py5) materials I think I'll need at least 10 patrons.
non ho voluto fare il solito post autocelebrativo, credo che ce ne siano fin troppi, quindi ho scritto dei miei inciampi e di come a volte gli scivoloni ti aiutino a stare in piedi e a camminare meglio!
Hi everyone, last year was very hard for me because I'm on a PhD program without a scholarship/grant*, I had fewer classes than I expected and my wife has been unable to work, mostly due to health issues. As it is natural, some patrons I had couldn't keep donating, and lapsed, also I'm kind of bad at asking for donations... so if you think you can spare a few bucks a month...
(*my other teaching jobs make me ineligible according to the main Brazilian granting institutions that want exclusive dedication to research, and the grants wouldn't cover my costs)
I'm embarrassed it took me like 3 days to figure out how to add a "Support" button to my videos on #PeerTube. I now have a link to my account on #liberapay in all the places I want it to be.
I'd like to add a Liberapay badge with links to donate on my PeerTube instance both in the main menu and below my videos for easy access, but finding a plugin or documentation on doing that is a bit sparse. Is there a guide or example online I can follow for that?
Je voudrais déjà remercier toutes les personnes qui ont contribué ou qui contribuent encore. Je ne touche "que" l'AAH et sans vous ce serait plus difficile ! 🙌
La bonne nouvelle c'est que, grâce à des réaménagements, les frais sont très stables par rapport à l'année précédente. À quelques centimes prêts l'objectif hebdo reste identique. Et nous en sommes à 83% !
It seems #Patreon have removed the donor profile page. This means donor's contributions are now invisible to others. Last year they made the project's income hidden to donors!
I want to strongly encourage software devs and content creators to move away from patreon to something move ethical like @Liberapay . This way you don't pay commission from each donation, and there is clear transparency in regular income. #Liberapay is also OpenSource and has a very transparent development.
Would someone who uses #Liberapay maybe be able to answer a question? Big platforms like #Patreon are theoretically cutting out adult content due to payment processors not wanting to be a part of it, right?
How does a platform like Liberapay avoid this becoming a future issue? With a lot of kink artists being suddenly removed from Patreon very recently in a purge, I'm curious if I should be telling people Liberapay is the right alternative they'll be safe on forever.
