This is not from personal experience, but observation of other maintainers e.g. like Christian Tismer & the psyco optimizing Python JIT, and the stackless python implementation. For both cases, he scored consulting gigs with companies that heavily used his projects, so that he could work on them and improve them. One was a computer trading company somewhere in the US, the other with the game studio CCP of Eve Online fame. So my suggestion would be to seek out companies that use pyobjc, and ask if they have an interest in employing you, on whatever base. Sorry that I can’t be of more help - crowd-funding has not worked for me so far, as these things seem to need (in my limited perception, not really deeply surveyed the landscape) a goal that has a certain “sexyness” (in lieu of a better term) - usually, that means a consumer product, such as a game, or self-driving cool box or some such.
