[Idea] Paid Option

[GaryFurash]

Just a thought but since you have so few backers on open collective why not just offer a paid subscription ($10 a year or something) where you can get better features or help desk support or something. I would definitely pay for something like that !

Hi @GaryFurash , thank you for your feedback!
There is no plan that the paid version, but we are glad to hear that :)

Btw, what kind of paid subscription feature do you want?
Thank you again!

I don't know. I just thought that if you came up with some cool feature or first line issue support or something you could charge like $30 a year or something, which would price you well below your competitors but still give you a revenue stream. Ill think about a cool feature.

I strongly disagree with the idea of paying to access features. It completely opposes the core ideal of Boostnote being OPEN SOURCE. See the main page, which claims that Boostnote is an "Open source note-taking app designed for programmers".

The only thing I'm thinking you could do is mimic what Canonical does with Ubuntu, and provide paid support with fast turnaround. Ideally, the issue could be put on GitHub (if applicable) once the solution has been found.

Edit: I realize that came off a little harsh. I really love this product, and would hate to see it die because it ran out of funding. As soon as I get some money, I'll donate it here.

I understand that the team focused snippet app is going to have a subscription based model.
Hopefully this will be enough for support your project.

Currently the open source model in combination with IssueHunt means that we can sustain Boostnote for now. Donations through IssueHunt are always helpful, and they will improve Boostnote!
