I don't have an international card and can't register Ko-Fi. This platform says it supports PayPal and Stripe. I hope it works. It shows "/ Month" but it's not a subscription, it's a one-time payment, so don't worry.

5 months ago after finding this: https://www.reddit.com/r/assholedesign/comments/1566g5a/afdian_a_chinese_website_doesnt_allow_users_to/ including the disclaimer at the top, that they can "terminate the cancellation without my consent". This sounds like a huge scam. It also sounds like it is a subscription, as that's what / Month means. Why use that terminology if it's not a subscription? Anyways, sorry, too sketchy.

5 months ago The / Month is the period of time the sponsor can see the paid content. I don't have them so the number doesn't make a difference. I was also confused by it at first, but then I found they clarified there is no subscription especially:
2.4 Does Afdian have automatic renewal and automatic deduction?
There is no automatic deduction or automatic renewal in any form, please rest assured.

But any way, it's ok if you're still worry about it. I don't presume to make money from open source projects.

5 months ago if you have any other mechanism, let me know. E.g. direct through PayPal.

5 months ago I do have a Paypal, Chaos-es@outlook.com, not sure if it can receive without linking any card.
After typing the above words, I tried again to connect my PayPal to Ko-fi, and this time it works instead of displaying some random error code. I thought the error was because I didn't link any card, but now it seems it's just a bug of Ko-fi/PayPal... Anyway, my page is here: https://ko-fi.com/chaosesib
Hey, just wanted to show some support. Do you have Ko-Fi or something so I can buy you a drink? I really appreciate your responsiveness!
