Thats complete and utter bullshit.

First off, nice to see you are fighting for the good in the world, while having a company in Delaware. Paying 0% taxes. Fuck the working poor, fuck all taxpayers and fuck the government that need these taxes … nice touch .

The point of a non profit is that donations to it are tax deductible.

Donations from NON EU organisations are NON  tax deductible. Paragraph.

You can donate to EU non profits but the DONOR has to PROOF without  doubt that these organisations have the same non profits standards as a German one.

Non donor will do this.  Even if he will try its almost impossible and lots of lots of work.

For your 5% cut you offer some shiny badges and things nobody really needs. Getting under an umbrella organisation is extra.

You are misleading the donors and everyone with this setup. 

Avoid like the plague.

Okay, I´ll bite. How do they solve this?

You can see the list of hosts they have here:

They have ready made non profits in Germany (eingetragener gemeinnütziger Verein) that I can use and rename and you will take care of it?

You do not rename. They are just fiscal sponsor:

That process is being abstracted by Open Collective.

And the 6 people will be delivered to?

I do not understand what you mean by this.

So basically slavery with extra steps and a  5% cut ...

I do not understand what you mean by this. It is a service they offer
so you do not have to take care of non-profits yourself. If you want
to take care, great. But if you have lack of (human) resources to take
care, then you can use their service. How is this slavery? It looks
pretty voluntary to engage with them (do the degree of business
partnerships being voluntary in our society).
