We use thanks.dev for distributing donations to OSS we use. I see that you have GitHub sponsors enabled. Would you care to join thanks.dev so that we can manage all our donations, including to your project, there? It supports then payouts to GitHub sponsors.

Hello @mitar, thanks for your message. I have just joined thanks.dev - although I am not sure I understand exactly how it works..... from what I can tell other projects would need to have Mailpit as a dependency - which isn't how Mailpit is integrated, but rather as an individual/complete tool. Maybe I just missed the point here?

thanks.dev also has a feature for manual inclusions, so we add all tools (and Docker images, etc.) as manually included. Then we have donations for all our dependencies (automatically discovered through dependency analysis and those we manually add) managed in one place.

https://github.com/golangci/golangci-lint is for example one such tool which we donate to through thanks.dev.

Cool, thanks for clearing that up ❤️ There's now also the link in the project sponsors.

Perfect. I also found you inside thanks.dev and added the project as manual inclusion. It will not be a lot (we are a small non-profit), but still.

Thank you for your project.
