I'm looking forward to Matrix eating all of their lunches. There absolutely no reason to have competing standards in this space. A horrible duplication of effort.

Matrix needs you! We are facing a funding crisis.
UPDATE: The situation has changed and our need is more urgent even than before.
This doesn't send a very positive signal to larger companies considering this platform.
2. We're offering donations by patreon, liberapay, IBAN(!), bitcoin & ethereum. I'm a bit confused as to why letting folks donate by bitcoin or ethereum would be a turn-off for a manager at a company. If you really think that adding Stripe to the mix would help things we can do that; we've just added paypal too.
Basically, it's a catch 22. We need to advertise that we need funding in order to get people to fund us. If that turns off some people rather than encourages them to donate, then such is life :/
That's exactly what any other protocol evangelist would say, be it IRC, XMPP...
That comic would be more applicable if we were all debating XMPP vs Matrix.
