Flattr is still a very new concept. Once they have more users I am sure it would be possible to lower the percentage. I wouldn't mind throwing in some extra money to cover the 10%, because this has the potential to change how content on the Internet gets paid for.

What I find annoying is that it's the incoming money that is taxed : if you give this money again it get taxed again, so this is actually 10%+9%+8.1% etc... It would be cleaner if the tax apply to withdrawed money or injected money or anything else not cumulative. Disclaimer : that's not my observation, I read it, but this is something that really kill the idea for me
