Hi!

golangci-lint is probably to-go project Go projects use for their
advanced linting needs. Despite that, it seems pretty sad to see that
it gets only $100 in donations per month to sustain its development
and maintenance. [1] Does anyone have any suggestions how we could all
together improve this?

I think it should be the actual linter authors that get sponsored.
Having been forced to use it, I think meta linters like those
can be actively harmful to the ecosystem through dubious choices of defaults.
