I'm your target and I don't exactly understand what you're writing.

For example, I want to donate $100 toward Rust Rocket version 1.0.0.

Can Polar help with this goal? If so, what's my next step?

Sorry about that, but happy to clarify anything.

You can pledge behind any open source issue that's on GitHub today. Just simply need to replace github.com in the URL with polar.sh or goto polar.new and drop the link.

We'll then reach out to the maintainers if they're not on the platform. Will soon ship so that an automatic comment is made (once). We don't want to create spam in the issues.

I really wish that had been, say, within the first 3000 words of the homepage. In fact, I think they would make a perfect lead. I literally had to go to the comments, page here to understand what was going on.
Great feedback, I really appreciate it! Will definitely fix
