UNSOLVED Who should I support? Ubports or foundation?

simbar

On liberapay there are two profiles related to UBPorts:
https://en.liberapay.com/UBports/
and
https://en.liberapay.com/ubports-foundation/

What is the difference between the two?
What do I support with the first one and what do I support with the second?

@simbar I will try and investigate and clarify.

@simbar @lakotaubp
The donate page on the website
( https://ubports.com/donate ) points to
https://liberapay.com/ubports-foundation/

@alter I want to try and sort out which is which. I have a feeling (and it may well be wrong) that one is before the Foundations was legally incorporated and had it's own direct bank account and the other would be the one was the one in use from before. Which would imply the Foundation one is the best to use and the other to avoid confusion should be removed but lets see.

@lakotaubp
Yes i think i red on the forum it's something like that, and the previous foundation one is still active because some people still donate on thise one.

Edit : found the thread https://forums.ubports.com/topic/1262/donate-anonymously-1-by-year-to-ubports-all-ubuntu-touch-users-can-do-it-demonstration/25?_=1641973431413

@lakotaubp
The link provided now by @Keneda shows the UBports account is old, the ubports-foundation is new.
Would it be possible for UBports to merge the 2 accounts in ubports-foundation on Liberapay by contacting them?

@alter That might be the result when it all becomes clear it all goes to the same place ( which is UBports) and for the same purpose (which I think it does).Just waiting till I get all the right info then will post back here.

@lakotaubp Okay, thanks!

@simbar Question from Q&A 115 might help https://ubports.com/blog/ubports-news-1/post/ubuntu-touch-q-a-115-3800

@lakotaubp which one exactly ? "Clarification about financial contributions" doesn't answer it and it's the only one touching the finances at all.
