@sam I can potentially help. Running costs for a new cooperative in Finland start at about 2000 €/y.
Are you saying Open Collective Europe wouldn't take you?

@nemobis It's been a while since I looked into the fiscal hosting side of their operation, I didn't realize there was a separate European one either so maybe it's worth looking at. Previously the Open Collective Foundation (or whatever the actual host is called, I forget?) wouldn't take you if you weren't on GitHub and I believe you had to show that you had a certain amount in donations and contributions either way that we didn't meet (this is like 3 people periodically contributing, mostly we don't even get enough donations to cover paying for the domain name every year)
