Open Collective will (presumably) experience a further drop in revenue as they lose the "platform fee" they collected from OCF
“”” over the last three years, the source of funds on the platform shifted majorly from small donations to added funds. A mechanism that was originally an unplanned “add-on” became the main source of our revenue, shifting our incentives and, slowly, our strategy, in a way that we did not plan for, and I failed to predict. As a result of this movement to direct-to-hosts large grants and funds (with their increased compliance and opex); the cost to hosting collectives while equally sharing the fee on the transaction became untenable for the fiscal hosts. “””
