Set up project donations

With no more corporate sponsorhip starting next month now is the best time to set up donations to the Pleroma project. The money collected could be used to pay to active contributors (and incentivise quality contributions that way), pay for project infrastructure (which is now provided for free by MFC, but who knows what will happen to that) and for setting up a bug bountry programme to make Pleroma more secure.

I think the best platform to use for this purpose is OpenCollective. It is open source, designed for transparency and multi-contributor usage and has no lock-in (all data is exportable and we can switch between different fiscal hosts/create our own if the fees or rules no longer are acceptable for us). I suggest reading the documentation to understand how it works and if everyone agrees with using OpenCollective, we can proceed to choosing a fiscal host (Open Source collective vs Open Collective Europe).
