(those are yearly costs, they add up)

$100 Apple code signing certificate
$600 Windows code signing certificate from digicert ($499.00 for one year)
$1050 Windows code signing certificate for 2 years from digicert ($475 per year, saves a bit of money)
$1350 Additional windows CI job (would possibly allow us to create 64-bit windows binaries without delay, appveyor charges $25 per additional job per month)
Steam store listing? Windows store listing?
$???? Additional travis (macOS?) CI jobs (we'd need to contact travis support for a quote)

Interesting ideas:

Discord role (or multiple tiered)
Private Q&A channel with devs
- Alternatively a half-public channel, in that all can read answers, but not all can write
Stickers (we'd need to design and order them first)
Coding livestreams (regularly, different topics (Mudlet, scripts)?)
Mentioning on about page

Anti-ideas we are not implementing:

Keneanung checked out other platforms that Github supports - none are all that popular and Patreon had the lowest fees.
- which ones were checked? --> The ones mentioned in https://help.github.com/en/articles/displaying-a-sponsor-button-in-your-repository#about-funding-files

don't want anyone to feel left out - Mudlet is gonna be free, and we're not doing this to make people without money feel bad (practically speaking the amount that'll care will not be high, but still!)
