We want to thank you for the support of the Open Collective Fund in 2022. It has been really fantastic! In 2023 we increased the minimum contribution to $5. The reason is that if you donate $1 through a credit card, there is a fee of $0.34. If you do it through PayPal, the fee is $0.54, which only leaves us with $0.66 and $0.46 respectively. Thus, contributing a tiny bit more should not be a burden for contributors but helps the fund significantly.
We know that these are difficult times for everyone, but we hope to continue counting on your great support. Without you we would not have been able to develop Yii at a good pace.
Thank you!
