Unfortunately, since it's a corporately-owned service, the community that uses it has no control over\nthe amount of resources provided to maintain it or ensure it's continued accessibility. So, I started Metron as an\nalternative to Comic Vine and as an educational exercise.\n\n## 🔊 \u003ca href=\"community\"\u003eCommunity\u003c/a\u003e\n\n[![Social - Matrix](https://img.shields.io/matrix/metron-general:matrix.org?label=Metron%20General\u0026logo=matrix\u0026style=for-the-badge)](https://matrix.to/#/#metron-general:matrix.org)\\\n[![Social - Matrix](https://img.shields.io/matrix/metron-devel:matrix.org?label=Metron%20Development\u0026logo=matrix\u0026style=for-the-badge)](https://matrix.to/#/#metron-development:matrix.org)\\\n[![Social - Mastodon](https://img.shields.io/badge/%40Metron-teal?label=Mastodon.Social\u0026logo=mastodon\u0026style=for-the-badge)](https://mastodon.social/@metron)\n\n## 🤝 \u003ca href=\"contributing\"\u003eContributing\u003c/a\u003e\n\nIf you're interested in helping add comics to the database, head over to \u003chttps://metron.cloud\u003e and read\nthe [Editing Guidelines](https://metron.cloud/pages/guidelines/editing/) before signing up for an account.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nIf you got knowledge of Python, Django or System Administration, I'm always looking for help with the technical side of\nthe project, so please contact me.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nIf you have any questions or suggestions, please head over to\nthe [discussion page](https://github.com/Metron-Project/metron/discussions).\n\n## 💸 \u003ca href=\"donating\"\u003eDonating\u003c/a\u003e\n\nIf you are interested in donating to the Metron Comic Book Database to help with server and development costs, you can\nback us through [OpenCollective](https://opencollective.com/metron).\n\n## 👍🏻 \u003ca href=\"alternative\"\u003eAlternatives\u003c/a\u003e\n\nThe project is fairly new compared to the other databases, so it might not meet your needs.
