I’m not sure if this is the right place for this question.

I’m a huge fan of the opensource concept.

And I also love providing products for free.

And I also absolutely hate ads with passion.

The question is,

How do I maintain a complex project that will need long time and effort to create. But also will need lots of resources to keep alive. Like management and hosting and database, etc.

There are 2 aspects :

  1. I will dedicate my time to it. Which means I won’t have time to work and gain money.

  2. The project needs to be fed constantly.

How do I go about this?
