I love what OpenCollective does but CommunityBridge does more than just funding, "summer of code as a service", security scanning, license scanning etc and is built to deal with a lot of the issues the Linux Foundation ran into scaling projects.

The Linux Foundation is also a non-profit (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_Founda...)... OpenCollective is a VC funded [1] organization and not fiscally sustainable due to its patreon style model IMHO [2]

You can see more ways to fund open source out there by going to oss.fund
