Maintenance of the official plugins is paid for by hosting revenue.
Given this need I’d like to ask what could be done to help plugin authors do to maintain plugins like this?
For instance, can a plugin be made to attach to topics that utilize stripe and allow people to collect a few bucks at a time to enhance their work?
The flag feature has only a few inquiries on updates, but an author could propose V2 if xx level of donations are raised, that plugin could be activated/attached to threads based on interest/feedback.
