We will probably consolidate and prioritize concerns that people have at some point and on some other page. In the mean time, treat this like a big whiteboard where anyone can just add a section voicing their concerns. Keep in mind that others will be reviewing and prioritizing them at some point and we will take all of them seriously, but only to the extent that we are able to understand what you have written. So do your best to express yourself fully and clearly, perhaps even with examples, and we can summarize and shorten elsewhere.

Is there going to be a monetary cost to be a user? I can't afford to pay for chat, or I have a philosophical or moral objection to money or the idea of charging for this service.

I want to offer financial support for this effort because it is important to me and/or my business but I don't know how to do that and I certainly don't want to give my hard earned money to someone I don't trust so why don't you have some trustworthy third-party organization like one of those OSS non-profits provide financial oversight and make it easy for me to donate funds for hosting and admin costs?
