Wokwi.com is an online simulator for electronic devices, Arduino, ESP, and the like. They have a club and a voting system I feel Joplin should adopt. Here is their page explaining the VotePowers. First, voting on features costs $1. Say I want Spell Checking to be your priority, this is linked to a feature request in GitHub, and everyone else who wants this feature will also vote with $1. The simplicity is it shows the development team what is critical now. Next, it has a VIP club feature where members can sign up for a monthly subscription for bonus votes.
first of all pls say who gets the money. thx!
I guess the development team, or it could be a purse to whoever solves the problem.
thank you. I like transparency and could not find the info myself on the page you linked.
No problem, Wokwi uses https://www.paddle.com/ to handle all the payment subscriptions. But I think Wokwi uses GitHub to handle all of the voting and feature requests.
