I’ve been thinking a lot recently about PeerTube, Loops, Bandwagon, and other platforms in the Fediverse that are geared around artists. I might get flamed for this, and you’re welcome to disagree, but I think the network is in dire need of having support for commerce.

Not “Big Capitalism” commerce, but the ability for people to buy and sell things, support projects, and commission their favorite creators to keep making more stuff.

Don't forget the instance operators! How can we get them more donations?

I recently found out about https://crowdbucks.fund/ (which is done for the Fediverse) and https://liberapay.com/

Maybe a first step would be to offer a native way to link to such donation platforms (link on the user profile, link on each posting, ...)

Also donations for the instance should be promoted more prominent.
