I love the idea of this pool, but one thing that personally puts me off it is the 0.5% fee to forrestv.
It's negligible I know, and I understand that you probably want a piece of the "pool operator pie" with some other pools charging 2% and things like that. But wouldn't it be better to have an auto-donate feature instead? (as in, auto-donating 1% of your shares to a forrestv donation worker)

I know I'd personally prefer that over a fee, mainly because it's not forced upon people. And you'd probably generate more from this "opt-out auto-donate system" than you would with a 0.5% fee.

The project to me seems to symbolize freedom from the mining pool operators and this fee kinda spoils it for me.

Any thoughts on switching to this?
