Hello, world! Recent lemm.ee migrant here moving into the neighborhood. My reference point is: https://fedecan.ca/en/donate

I'd like to request Liberapay support for donations - generally speaking it's a zero-fees frontend for Stripe/Paypal/Credit cards and SEPA if in EU (not applicable here). Most questions are answered via their FAQ page: https://liberapay.com/about/faq

As a user, Liberapay allows me to organize (and get reminders!) of all my donations regardless of individual payment source, turn them on off add more money, etc. Their preferred method to keep the lowest fees is, for example a monthly donation, to charge an entire year's worth of donations at once, then dole it out post-fees monthly themselves. In a sense, solves the "no Stripe recurring payments" problem and it's optional for the user to choose (but recommended). The Liberapay platform survives by people donating (meaning, they "eat their own dogfood" and use the platform they built to survive)

Liberapay has worked out great for me as a user for years supporting various open source projects and collectives of all types. Thank you for considering.
