For those wondering:

> When you add your project dependencies, StackAid is treated as an implicit direct dependency. StackAid is on equal footing, but unlike those dependencies, StackAid's allocation is capped at 7.5%. In the example above, StackAid would receive $1.50/mo.

I must be missing something here.

On a donation of $10, their cut should be $0.75, given that's 7.5%.

For a $10/month donation yes our max take would be $0.75. The example on the homepage is for a $20/month subscription.

The example in the middle uses $20 as a donation, not $10. Thus, $1.5.
