Trying something different again here, sorry.

Location: Canada

Remote: Yes

Technologies: C, OpenBSD

I'm looking for monthly/yearly "no-strings" sponsors, not employment, if any individuals, companies (or bitcoin millionaires) would like to help a long-time OpenBSD slacker, unslack, I'd really like to focus more of my time on open source development (and advocacy), rather than making rent. Feel free to contact me (see HN bio).

On the topic of bitcoin millionaires... I'm getting some sponsorship for my FreeBSD release engineering work from https://opensats.org/ . Have you asked them?

    I haven't, honestly the application processes, paperwork, project reporting expectations and eligibility criteria for these kind of funds just gives me too much anxiety. I never know how to navigate it as a Canadian either, most of them are US or Europe based.

    I guess I'm naive to hold out for the anonymous bitcoin millionaires to donate "no strings" until I find something a bit more frictionless.

    Thanks anyway for the suggestion, glad to hear you're getting sponsored for your FreeBSD work.
