This is even more confusing because the org behind Open Collective (opencollective.com) is called " Open Source Collective" whereas the org behind Open Source Collective (oscollective.org) is called Open Collective Foundation.

I believe the author here is confused as well

EDIT: I'm even more confused. Links from oscollective.org point back to opencollective.com. 😵‍💫

So Patreon is the only workaround atm.

Nope. Just use Open Collective. If you're a FOSS project, use Open Source Collective. Neither are shutting down.

Luckily not! There's LiberaPay, which I find preferable to OpenCollective anyway. No confusion with hosts and it's clearly non-profit.

The problem is Liberapay is that it's not a fiscal host. i.e.you need to take the money, declare taxes on it etc.
