Suggestion: Patreon channel

[vvzen]

Hi Ryan,
and congratulations for this great project.
Imho it's the most intuitive and inspiring live coding framework that's available right now, the UX is just above anything else that I've tried. Also, thanks for all of the awesome documentation.
I've read on the toplap forum that recently this project has become more of a burden than a pleasure, due to the high volume of issues and requests.

So I was thinking that - maybe - you could think about opening a Patreon channel?
I'm sure many people would like to support you (starting from myself).
I know money doesn't fix things, but maybe it could give you a little bit of peace so that the efforts and time you did put into this project could at least buy you a cold beer with friends or good old road trip somewhere far from the computer. It could help set a time limit for when to work on the project, so that when you're not working for it you don't feel guilty (IE: you could set a number of monthly hours based on the pledges you get.. after that, there's no obligation for you to stress by working on FoxDot).
I really like this project and I hope it can live a life of its own, without dragging you down with him. I know this could feel making a nice hobby project more than what it originally thought to be, so I can understand you may not want to go into this direction.

Best,

Valerio
