We just released new capabilities in Skip to make reactive services scale easily and efficiently across machines. Skip’s core is a native reactive computation graph that minimizes unnecessary recomputation—great for real-time apps—but now you can also scale horizontally using a leader/follower architecture.

We’ve open-sourced an example service (yes, it's called hackernews) you can try locally or on Kubernetes. It supports seamless scaling via kubectl scale, with zero downtime and no changes to your backend logic.

Blog post with diagrams and code here: https://skip.dev/blog/dynamic-scaling

GitHub repo: https://github.com/skiplang/skip To try it:

   npx create-skip-service hackernews --example hackernews --verbose  
   docker compose -f hackernews/compose.distributed.yml up --build  
Curious to hear your thoughts or feedback!


Let's not forget about Tipeee, which might be the only platform actually not in debt (they merely raised 150 000€ 3 years ago, and officially declared benefits last year).


Recurring payment, so many platforms now...

What other platform to host a profile and raise money monthly do you know ?


As a content creator, what I need is the ability to create multiple projects under one account. I want people to donate to separately to each individual piece of content I create.

Ideally, a payment platform should offer an API for creating projects programmatically and retrieving information on the funding.


Probably the most complete up-to-date list: https://wiki.snowdrift.coop/market-research/other-crowdfundi...

It includes all you listed and much more.

It's on the wiki of a still-in-progress platform that actually plans a novel and potentially better model than all the other things, at least in terms of funding public goods without paywalls (many of these sites are paywall-focused, freemium projects with some public, some exclusive publications).


Shameless plug for my company https://Donorbox.org we helped nonprofits raise over $150MM.


Engineering VPs very much know about it.
