Please help break the Donate button.

This is not to dispute that there are many who need and deserve donations. This is to remind you to a simple fact:

If you cannot find a way to finance your project, you might not qualified to host it, run it, manage it. Your project might have grown beyond your means. In any case, your project is sustained via charity, and eventually you will disappoint your DONORS by shutting it down.

When your project web shows a Donate button I will not visit again. I have no confidence in you or in your explanations. I will not Donate. I will keep searching for someone with the ability to finance the same project without resorting to handouts.

ESPECIALLY when the donation happens via a third party.
