Does codeforces need help from users?
By whyalwaysmezzz, history, 2 days ago, In English

Although codeforces is the largest and most powerful platform in the world, it seems that the server is not very stable (in my opinion), does codeforces need our (users) to contribute efforts (like donate for example) to improve the platform and provide a better experience for ourselves ?

True, I think codeforces should provide a portal where we can donate some shit as a token of thanks for the awesome platform <3

We can agree that it is not necessary, codeforces has sponsors, like TON. But it would be a great way to show love and support from our side.

Nice idea. It's difficult to manage so many user submissions, and Codeforces is doing a great job which is appreciateable. I think getting more sponsors for Codeforces would be a nice idea.

Develop a VIP system and VIP users open submission pages 10 seconds faster than others and enter contests 2 minutes earlier than others. What's more, codeforces can set a "VIP TL" in contest for VIP users.

Set a price for VIP like 10$/month then i believe codeforces can get enough money :)

    Don't forget the micro-transactions and loot boxes
