We now have open collective page, which should bring more transparency into the foundation and provide easier means to donate.

Is there any reason we should keep the foundation link too?

I don't think so, because that will redirect users back to OC. They can always end up on foundation link from OC if they want to know the legal details.

are SEPA donations still supported? i would prefer it since it has no fees

If so, it makes sense to keep the link

They are still supported, but they won't be transparent so the fees are for that.

@domenkozar it seems that it is possible to expose "external" donations: https://docs.opencollective.com/help/hosts/add-funds-manually

Yes, but at this point it's not worth automating given the low yearly amounts.

I'm happy to do that once we agree this is mergable.
