I just started adding a bit more monthly, it isn't enough to cover but hopefully it can help someone.

I don't know why people would rather use Patreon than Stripe, both of them take almost zero effort to set up a recurring donation. Setting up my recurring donation took about 30 seconds. And considering one of those takes a much smaller cut, there is zero reason to accept Patreon.

Imo the fund should be more for helping more goons with small amounts than massive requests. 2000 dollar requests are a huge ask, and is way outside of what the fund can and should be supporting.

Fair, but I thought the whole point of this fund was to give a little to a lot, not a lot to a little. Imo if you request over 100, your first 100 should be prioritized, and any remaining should be lower priority. Maybe there should be a few breakpoints like that, ex: 1-100, 101-250, 251-500. Also I don't think the fund should be filling amounts over 500 unless there is a very very good reason, as that will just drain the fund instantly.

really queer Christmas posted:Also, so people are aware, we've never turned down any smaller requests. Or really any request, everyone has gotten something even if it wasn't the full amount. That makes sense and is good, but if the fund has a choice between scraping by and barely making enough and filling massive requests, and having a comfortable nest egg that can immediately fill any reasonable smaller requests, I would choose the second option. You never know when those massive donations will dry up. I say this because I really want the fund to focus on those smaller emergencies that can screw you over, like 20 years back when I was broke and a car I was lending to a friend was towed and I didn't have money for food for a week after getting the car back. poo poo happens and I would never expect anyone to cover the tow cost, but money for food would have been very nice. Imo that is the sort of emergency this fund should be focused on.

I have an ongoing Stripe payment but I will setup a Venmo account this evening and donate.
