GitHub Sponsors Profile

Greetings! 👋 I'm Hynek, a prolific open source maintainer and active community citizen! I’ve been a very active member of the Python community for a decade, with non-trivial contributions to countless critical Python projects. So it's safe to say that if you've ever run Python, you've run code written by me.
Especially attrs, structlog, and argon2-cffi are keystone projects of the Python community. My recent stamina and svcs have also gained interest and recognition.
Additionally, I spend a lot of time on tweeting 🦜, tooting 🐘, writing 🖋️, publicly learning 🤯, speaking 📣, YouTubing 📺, and mentoring 👨‍🏫 about software engineering and Python and how it fits into the greater production / service landscape.
Why You Should Sponsor Me
I've been maintaining some of my projects for a decade and as every FOSS maintainer will tell you: it's no fun. Most time is spent answering bug reports and fixing edge cases, not implementing exciting new features.
Sponsorships have carried me over major motivation slumps in the past and are the only reason my software remains production-grade across the board. Every time I get an email about a new sponsor, it's like a bolt of energy. Every time I get a GitHub Sponsors payout, I feel gratitude and motivation.
If you sponsor me, you ensure that I remain motivated to maintain my projects further, share my knowledge in blog posts and conference talks, and help users of my software – instead of looking into how to monetize my skills privately.
Lately, I've also started using the funds from my sponsorship income to travel to smaller conferences. Therefore your sponsorships directly enable me to contribute to the community even more without straining conference budgets.
Perks
The main perk, of course, is more of my output being available to everyone. So, no matter what tier you choose, you're helping me improve the world. Thank you!
But after years of receiving generosity, I want to give back:

❤️ Every sponsor of $11 or more that chooses to sponsor publicly, will be thanked by me in every project release in the GitHub release notes while they're sponsoring me.
🔦 Sponsors of $25 and up are presented as "Featured sponsors" on this page (until I run out of space!).
🖼️ For organizations, it's now possible to add a sponsor logo to one of my projects, per $50. Of course, you're also qualified if you sponsor me with equivalent one-time donations.
📣 The highest tiers also include monthly social-media shout-outs including a handle of your choice when announcing a new release.
📺 I'm currently experimenting with thanking my sponsors on my YouTube channel, but no promises about frequency and/or format!

❗️ Important: If you have any questions or concerns regarding the perks, don't hesitate to get in touch with me at [email protected]! ❗️
