My approach with Code Hike (https://codehike.org/ https://codehike.org/) was to add a sponsor-wall to some parts of the docs, not sure if it falls under any of those categories. It's working decently well ($600 per month).
- capableweb 4y ago> https://codehike.org/demo/scrollycoding-preview https://codehike.org/demo/scrollycoding-preview > The code of this demo is hidden until it reaches five sponsors. > Become a sponsor for $9 a month to have full acces to all demos: Maybe I misunderstand, but I could either pay $9/month and would be able to access it directly, or I wait until you get 5 more sponsors (for that specific page) and then I'll be able to access the content for free, like everyone else? So if I end up sponsoring the page to view it, I could end up being the fifth sponsor, unlocking the page for everyone and ultimately spent the money for content that now everyone can view too?
- pomber 4y agothat's right
- svnpenn 4y agoyeah, whats wrong with that?
- lupire 4y agoProbably would get much better results if it said "$50 bounty for this demo" or whatever, and collected pledges of any amount, instead of hoping for exactly 5 whales to show up. And making a subscription makes the value prop even more confusing. Seems like an own-goal.
- wodenokoto 4y agoThat's quite an interesting approach. And congratulations on getting Meta to sponsor your project. Even if they are only giving you $9/month it must still feel like quite the validation.
- pomber 4y agoThanks. Meta made a generous one-time donation via Open Collective https://opencollective.com/codehike https://opencollective.com/codehike
- ohiovr 4y agoGood software needs no docs.
