Flathub is receiving $10ks of services from especially Fastly, but also Packet.net (via CNCF http://cncf.io/), Mythic Beasts and Codethink. The current "Acknowledgements" section hidden on the About page with no links, images or text doesn't do nearly enough to appreciate these huge contributions which allow the service to exist. I suggest:

Relatedly, we should add the GNOME Foundation as they paid a recent hosting invoice and provide legal advice (and we are hoping for sysadmin support soon), and Scaleway is no longer a sponsor so can be removed.

In our presentation at GUADEC we talked about "companies providing services" and "companies donating time". Do you want both of them or only the fist type? If you want them all, should I merge them or keep them separated by type?

What about having a list of companies that, like Scaleway, sponsored in the past? It could be also in the sponsors page in a lower list without logos and maybe even grouped by year
