@Gina @ronnylam @janvlug I think one thing which shouldn't be forgotten is the behavioural / social element that people use their calendars in completely different ways:

Some people are ok with colleagues booking meetings when they appear free. Others might hate it if _external_ people can book time in their calendar (via booking links). To make things even more complex, these paradigms/habits are ever-evolving, if you think of how Covid changed everyone's approach to meetings.

Such a mess! :)

@tcb Not a dumb question at all. We are actually considering SEPA payments and Direct Debits!

It's not completely trivial because of some accounting complexity. I believe as a business you would have to issue invoices or at least payment confirmations anyway so if there are more than a handful of such donations per month you would have to get some sort of processor again to deal with the operations.

@Kdude That's a fair point of criticism. Financial infrastructure is indeed very American, especially if you try to tap into the reach of existing sponsorship platforms like Patreon.

We have been looking into WERO lately to offer an alternative.
