π€ A request for help
Maintainers have teeth and need to pay their dentists.
After getting laid off in an RIF in March, and encountering difficulty finding a new one,
I began spending most of my time building open source tools.
Iβm hoping to be able to pay for my kidsβ health insurance this month,
so if you value the work I am doing, I need your support.
Please consider sponsoring me or the project.

Another Way to Support Open Source Software
Iβm driven by a passion to foster a thriving open-source community β a space where people can tackle complex problems, no matter how small. Revitalizing libraries that have fallen into disrepair, and building new libraries focused on solving real-world challenges, are my passions. I was recently affected by layoffs, and the tech jobs market is unwelcoming. Iβm reaching out here because your support would significantly aid my efforts to provide for my family, and my farm (11 π chickens, 2 πΆ dogs, 3 π° rabbits, 8 πβ cats).
If you work at a company that uses my work, please encourage them to support me as a corporate sponsor. My work on gems you use might show up in bundle fund.
Iβm developing a new library, floss_funding, designed to empower open-source developers like myself to get paid for the work we do, in a sustainable way. Please give it a look.
