did.<br />
<br />
Which reminded me to ask folks: How often do you contribute to web services<br />
and how?<br />
<br />
I do a yearly donation to Wikipedia, and subscribe to three or so<br />
developers via Patreon<br />
https://www.patreon.com/<br />
.. and recently to Open Collective<br />
https://opencollective.com<br />
for Rollup. And like the Guardian, spontaneous acts of gratuitous giving :)<br />
<br />
I wonder how the web is evolving to paying folks for useful services? The<br />
Brave browser folks have built in payments but I've not entirely switched<br />
over yet so don't know how well that's going.<br />
<br />
Thoughts?<br />
