Just checked their OpenCollective, and they seem to have about US$100k there:

They seem to be receiving about US$2k/month via Patreon too:

I think their Patreon was around the same when I looked ~12 months ago.



$2k/mo is a terribly low figure for a piece of software that nearly every dev on macOS uses.


That US$100k seems to have arrived over the last year, and their overheads - from quickly looking over their OpenCollective expenses tab - seem to be mostly buying hardware for CI things, and a monthly GSuite bill.

It's also pretty likely they get a lot of their resources for free / sponsored too.

So, US$2k/mo might be fine (no idea).
