Thank you so much for sponsoring me! :)

As I wrote in the announcement, I've already been working primarily on Ladybird for ~2 years already, so you have indeed been sponsoring Ladybird development by sponsoring me.

SerenityOS doesn't have a GitHub Sponsors itself, but it does use Polar to allow anyone to directly sponsor work on specific issues. See https://polar.sh/SerenityOS

And don't worry, there won't be some VC investment or big company buyout.

That reminds me of Torvalds' statement on Linux: "just a hobby, won't be big and professional like gnu"
