I put 50$ in the pokey machine but it’s only paid it out to two projects? Some of the other projects which are missing out I already donate to.

Any ideas?

Hi! Thanks for trying it out. I have reached out via email but just in case, looks like your account is configured for only first level dependencies. If you increase it to 3 levels it'll show much better results. You're also able to adjust the distribution of funds via boosting in the dependencies page.

Please note the donation will be kept in PENDING state for 5 days to allow time for full dependency analysis, adjustments via boost and/or exclusions. In this time we'll be reaching out to the other projects in your dependency tree to onboard them.

Please ping me if you need anything. Many thanks again!

Ok thanks so much. I assumed first level dependencies were anything that would turn up in a requirements.txt so reduced it from the default.

Thanks for building this and I'm looking forward to seeing how it develops.

I will add my voice to the "allowing this service full access to my repos is uncomfortable" crowd, there's a couple of my clients that have stricter NDAs which has meant those repos have been excluded. But you'll figure that out when you do.

Cheers and enjoy the product launch :)

Thanks for taking the time to register & donate. We’re looking into it now & we will send you a DM shortly.
