per monthHey it's me, Zorge.R.
I'm founder of firmware.center (Free for all firmware download center) and many other FOSS projects: https://github.com/ZorgeR?tab=repositories, like DroidFlasher (XDA).
Firmware.center project goal is to create a free resource for quick and easy access to firmware of any manufacturer and equipment, it's a Wikipedia for firmware.
Project growth very quickly and has been a significant increase in the costs of project maintenance.
Statistics at 19.04.2017:
Server cost 110 Euro per month and the price increases every month due to traffic growth.
Therefore, we decided to take advantage of the help of our users due to high costs of project maintenance.
The funds will be used to cover the costs of the project. If we manage to raise enough money, we'll update the hardware.
