Hello! Thanks for sharing your thoughts!

Our research indicates that many repositories could avoid abandonment with more targeted funding, which is why we introduced the issue-based principle. However, we acknowledge that this approach may not be suitable for all issues or open source repositories.

To address this, we're considering giving repository maintainers the ability to manage donations, such as distribution and permissions on specific issues to encourage proper development. The actual execution of these features will be tested during the beta phase, as predicting their usage beforehand is challenging.

Your feedback is valuable, and we welcome constructive criticism and ideas. Thanks once again for your input!
