On: An Update on MDN Web Docs

[dflock]

There are two existing ways to pay for MDN, that are so well hidden that I only just found out about them:

- Sponsor for $ a month: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/payments/

- Buy Merch: https://shop.spreadshirt.com/mdn-store/

I bet these pay for an exec's Tesla.

That is also true for any non-profit you donate for. The Cancer non-profit, the Xyz decease non-profit.

That is not strange. Non-profits require good leadership - and that comes with a salary.

And also implementors of the web specs and APIs (browsers and others) imo should fund it more effectively (disclosure, I lead Chrome Developer Relations).

Despite all the people in this thread saying they would happily donate directly to MDN, no one has responded here noticing that the donation page doesn't work.

There's a discussion up the page.

I’ll get some merch. Thanks!
