So what are you intending to offer that people aren't already able to do? A link to a patreon, ko-fi, etc. already exists on creator's pages.
Great question! The reason for this poll is to ask if people feel that's enough.
On a personal level, it's not - as mentioned above, I hit more services and people I'd like to support than it's reasonable to do a patreon/ko-fi for each, and it ends up being partially random chance on who gets support. But I'm curious if that's a problem for other people's on the Fediverse, and what they think about it if so - or if there are other problems we're not even tracking on.
More loosely, the concept we're playing with looks at the servers you interacted with and splits your monthly budget among them automatically, dropping the manual "will I subscribe to this server's patreon?" or "will I make a donation today?" steps needed right now. But as far we know right now, that's just solving me and Punty's problem - it'd be cool to know other people saw this problem too.
