Related statement from the Executive Director of Open Collective Europe (OCE): https://opencollective.com/europe/updates/regarding-the-anno...

I'm personally the admin of a (very small) OCF collective. It's sad to see them stopping. When starting the collective ~2 years ago, OCF was an attractive option because of their fees, which were significantly lower than many other big fiscal hosts (5% instead of 10%). Their array of services was also impressive, but I never made use of any service outside the core Open Collective feature set. I wonder if raising their fees, or cutting down services, would have made the operation more sustainable.
