Is there a place where I can donate?

[sniper756]

I just started using Discourse and I think it’s great. I’m not using it for commercial purposes, only for my own daily record-keeping, and it’s non-profit. However, I would still like to donate to Discourse within my means to express my gratitude.

As an alternative you can buy merch

Thank you, I have never bought anything from this website, I will go and try to purchase.

Perhaps email team@discourse.org? AFAIK there is no ‘donation’ platform for Discourse.

No, there is no real way to donate, but we do appreciate the thought a lot @sniper756

The best alternative way atm to help is spread the word!

I don’t think a lot has changed since 2015

Edit: actually, one thing that has changed is that we’ve received this question enough to write up an FAQ

@Discourse

This is a guide on how to contribute to the Discourse open-source project in various ways including advocacy, design, documentation, translation, code contributions, bug reporting, and financial support.

Required user level: Anyone can contribute!

Many passionate people often ask how they can give back to Discourse. The simple answer is, “You’re awesome! ” and yes, there are many ways you can contribute.

And a lot has changed since that was written. Only the Discourse team is allowed to update topics in Documentation.

Indeed, I’ve removed that part now
