Hi everyone,
I'm not a regular visitor here, but a long time Ubuntu user, and "discovered" Flattr recently. (Actually I heard about it since forever, but never really paid attention). I joined Flattr and I love it. What I love most about it (http://bartssolutions.blogspot.be/2015/04/why-flattr-does-mattr_1.html) (link goes to a blog post of mine about it) is the fact you set a monthly limit for contributions you want to make, and then you can donate at your heart's desire without worrying about exceeding your budget.

I wondered if Ubuntu has a Flattr account, I wanted to subscribe to it but I don't find one, so guess not? Any special reasons why? Any experiences to share (negative/positive) concerning Flattr? I'm a new Flattr user and am kind of astonished that not every open source and art project is on Flattr (and the same for every open source fan and art lover), to me it sounds like the revolution, internet power at full blow, but maybe I'm missing things?

Interested in any ideas, comments, ...
