I'm building an app I'd love to open source, but can't because that would make it's development unsustainable.

I've been thinking that I could open a patreon account, and then open source the code after I reach $5k/mo in monthly donations.

Do you think it's a good idea?



Once it actually gets launched, also consider Snowdrift.
