About me and what I do
My name is Liam Dawe, I run GamingOnLinux.com, what I commonly refer to a "GOL"! It's a completely independent gaming website, dedicated to Linux gaming.

Want to know how much I've done on the site, or what anyone else has done on it? You can hit this link. You will notice the who has written section, which clearly shows how much effort I put in.

I have written about Linux news for many years and I don't ever want to quit. I was the original gaming writer for the old Linux Voice magazine, which has since merged with another. You can see a horrible picture of me in many of their earlier issues.

The code that runs GOL is open source under the MIT license: https://gitlab.com/liamdawe/gamingonlinux, I chose that license so that anyone can tinker with it re-use it and generally do whatever they like without any licensing hassles. It's really only meant for GOL though, but hey if an issue bugs you, why not help out ;)

I write new articles almost every day for you to keep up with everything around Linux and Linux/SteamOS gaming. I do take some time off though, so by pledging please don't expect masses of articles every day. I do what I can though!

I also run Game Servers. So you can join other Linux gamers in some fun online games!

Payments
You can pledge any amount you want from $1 to $ whatever. It's your choice, you don't even need to pick a reward.

Payments are taken once a month between 1st-3rd of each month.
Example: You pledge on the 5th of March, your payment is taken around the 1st of April.
This means you won't get a GOL Premium badge on the website until your payment clears!

What to expect from this Patreon
While most of my work goes into writing articles and working on the websites code, I will be throwing out information early to Patreon supporters on what I'm working on. You will also have a direct say in what I do next. I will be involving you in the process of my work, as much as possible. I will also give you sneak peeks at things before they are ready to go on the website.

I will also throw out free keys here and there to my supporters. Those pledging to the "Premium Plus" level will be able to see the posts with free keys. Please don't expect them too often though!

None of this is possible without your support! So thank you <3
