Option to sponsor? #18

This is a great project and I think the community will benefit a ton from it. The SBC community needs more projects like this. Have you thought about including an option for sponsoring this work (would be happy to sponsor!)

Thank you for the warm and encouraging words! I really appreciate that.

Also, thanks for offering to sponsor. In the long run, I would love to find a way to make Rugpi financially viable and ensure its proper maintenance and development, especially when it gains further traction and adoption. So far, however, I have no concrete plans for how this may look like, in particular since this is a young project and also the first public project of my company (Silitics), which I just founded. Towards the end of the year, I hope to have a clearer idea where this project (and my company) is going. With regard to sponsorships, I would first have to check how this would work from a tax perspective. Currently, however, this is not a priority, as my focus is on building a successful project and finishing my PhD.
