   What’s the lowdown on the current landscape of low-key, low-overhead “tip tar” / “support this work” sorts of services?

   Patreon seems kinda sus these days. Who’s behind Ko-FI? Other options to consider?

     @AlgoCompSynth I’ve scrolled by a few things that gave me the vibe that they’re shifting to the “extract and cash out” phase, but that may be an unfair inference.

     What about alternatives like Ko-Fi, Buy Me a Coffee, etc? I have no idea who’s behind any of these — and the “who” seems important here.
