@fabianhjr Very difficult to suss out, and often problematic. Imagine in this scenario, would a couple poeple hosting a Mastodon node and getting paid to do it via a Patreon/Liberapay be charged for it? Good chance the answer is "yes": they're not officially a cooperative or nonprofit.

If you had a bunch of people contributing to a project, how do you determine how much money goes to whom to establish a "license"? And who draws up the license/contract scope, and for what terms?
