What does HackerNews think of LibreSelery?
Continuous distribution of funding to your project contributors and dependencies. Integrated into GitHub Actions
Donation were distributed entirely through the CoinBase api by sending emails to each developer in the Git history.
I wonder how you will divide the money among the developers. Giving money just to the project maintainers will not strengthen the community. Unfortunately, this is often exactly the area where support is needed to create sustainable open source in addition to fiscal support.

Our open source community protontypes created a new concept for the funding of software development. We developed a command-line tool for CI that continuously distributes funding between project contributors and open source dependencies. After our first prototyping phase and evaluation, we have distributed around 3000€ between contributors of our own project and collected further requirements from multiple partners like the Debian project or GNU. By successfully applying the concept to our own development we have shown that a free and open alternative to GitHub Sponsors is possible.
As many of our partners need a Gitlab integration we are looking for a partnership to lift the prototype to an open, free and independent alternative to GitHub Sponsors that allows projects to switch to any git platform without losing the funding. We are willing to shift the major development repository to Gitlab as we think this will give the project more opportunities and flexibility in the long term. More information can be found here:
