please never feel bad about cancelling a sponsorship to me
π here's what I wish I could say:
1οΈβ£ thank you β€οΈ
2οΈβ£ there are lots of good reasons not to keep giving ΒΉ
3οΈβ£ I won't assume it was because of me
4οΈβ£ don't feel awkward
5οΈβ£ ... and don't go away! Β² π
ΒΉ Here are some good reasons:
β£ reduced budget
β£ sponsoring someone else
β£ it doesn't bring joy
β£ ... literally anything else
The point of a gift is that it's *freely given*. The last thing anyone wants is someone to feel obliged to keep giving it.
Β² I'm far more sad when I see someone stop appearing in Discord chats or GitHub issues/discussions/PRs.
(And I do worry often that when money gets involved it can ruin what is much more important - relationships.)
(But that might be a discussion for another day.)
