Join GitHub Sponsors 🚀

I maintain projects like gunicorn (Python) and hackney (Erlang/Elixir), both widely used in production systems. Sponsorship helps me spend more time maintaining them and shipping regularly.

Posting it too. I need some feedback. I'm about to opensource something "big" . I'm wondering if I should put everything on github or keep it on my gitlab , make it public and have a read mirror on Github. Thoughts?
