Thanks for thinking of it. I’ve had the idea of finding funding in the back of my mind for a while, but I guess the main reason I’ve held off is that I can afford to fund things myself for now, and it wouldn’t feel right accepting money if I couldn’t guarantee productive output. I’m taking a break from tech jobs and meant to use this time as a way to focus on Kitten, but it has taken me longer to recover from burnout than anticipated. I feel ready to be making regular progress again, and when I feel confident in the state of things I may look into this and other sources of support like crowdfunding (e.g., Patreon).
