Become a sponsor to CHIKAMATSU Naohiro
Sponsorship keeps me motivated. If someone sponsors me, it means my OSS was actually useful to them, and that's enough.
I use the money for server costs, technical books, and sometimes toys for my kid.
I also match every sponsorship I receive by spending the same amount to sponsor other open-source developers. I'm not trying to make a living from sponsorships. What I want is proof that something I built was useful to someone — and your sponsorship is that proof.
The money then goes back into the open-source community, where it can help motivate someone else to keep building.
I've implemented features requested by sponsors before, when feasible, and I'm open to doing that again.
If five sponsors gather, what will I be able to do?
