I visit fund.godotengine.org from time to time to look at the numbers. Since multiple weeks pass between my visits, I always forget the previous value and thus it always looks good to me, lol. Today I noticed it and wondered: how does it actually evolve over time? I went to the web archive and looked at all of the saved snapshots from July 2023, gathered ~110 entries in a NotExcel spreadsheet, and plotted the results. "Donors" stands for "Members + Sponsors". Monetary values are in EUR. Dates are in Year/Month/Day or Year-Month formats.

Income and Donors: Relatively stable over time. There are some jumps here and there, but there are about 1500 consistent donors (of which ~15 consistent sponsors) donating around 50-55K.

Progress of Godot's fund, Income and Donors

Monthly diff: Most months are quiet with small increases or decreases in amount of donors or income, with very few outliers.

Monthly (end of month) increase/decrease of Income and Donors

Diffs: These are the best / worst changes from one recorded day to the previous recorded day. Note: Sometimes there are BIG gaps in data, so there are differences between recorded days! I've added both dates, and per-day averages when they are not consecutive, to make this clearer. If anyone has better ideas for handling this, ~~suggestions~~ pandas+matplotlib code is welcome.
