A note from the editor.

Dear Philosofriends,

Thanks for visiting Daily Nous, reading the posts, taking part in the discussions, and making suggestions. It’s truly a privilege to be able to serve the philosophy community in this way.

Each day, I spend a lot of time going over possible material for the site, writing posts, moderating discussions, and handling the site’s various administrative tasks. It takes a lot of work to keep Daily Nous running.

Over the years, readers have occasionally made donations to help with the site’s expenses, but there wasn’t a regular way of doing so. I’m happy to announce that there now is. I’ve created a Patreon page for Daily Nous. (For those who don’t know, Patreon is an established web service that makes it simple for you to provide support for services, projects, and goods.)

If there’s enough revenue through the Patreon page, I will hire a part-time assistant to help with the site. That would be an enormous help to me and crucial for DN’s long-term sustainability. (I don’t know how much longer I can keep doing this unassisted.)

So if you visit Daily Nous and find it to be of value, please check out the options for supporting the site at the Patreon page.

I just set up the page moments ago. Patreon recommends including a video but I have not yet done that, so in lieu of a video please accept this series of ridiculous selfies I took with my laptop open to the site’s Patreon page:

All donors will be recognized on a soon-to-be-created Supporters Page at the site (unless they don’t want to be).

OK. Let’s see how this goes.

Thank you all very much for your support!
