Just want to chime in that while I'm not particularly informed on the options for donating to projects, liberapay does look quite nice compared to SPI (though the $100 cap per person is a little odd in my opinion). I'm personally not all too fussed about the PayPal fees (though I understand others' concerns towards it). I'll continue to use SPI though unless the team indicates options like liberapay are equally as frictionless on their end.
