How can I see at which streamer drops can be collected at the moment?

The "/online" command lists all streamers where drops can currently be collected. From the list people can go directly to the stream and take part in it.​

---

Are other platforms supported besides Twitch?

Currently, only Twitch can be supported as a platform. Among other things, this has technical reasons, because Twitch is currently the only platform that allows full access to the current viewers. Unfortunately, other platforms do not yet allow this in their API or only show selected viewers. This would have the consequence that a drop on other platforms can no longer be distributed fairly, since it cannot be ensured that all viewers are recognized by the plugin.

Currently recognized platforms:

• YouTube (Gaming) - Not a complete viewer list
• Mixer - No longer available as plafform
• Trovo - No complete API available
• DLive - Not a complete viewer list
• Kick - No complete API available

Is it possible to donate something to you?

I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who asks me for a way to support / donate, because you like my plugins, my support or just the idea so much.

I would like to say at this point that I am very grateful for this question, because it is simply not self-evident and shows conviction. Comments like "Your plugins could also be premium plugins" or "I would even pay for the plugin", as well as "I like your work and I want to support it". These and similar messages, whether public or private, not only give me pleasure but also honor me.
