Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ

I give $10/month to RiseUp for their VPN service.

Yes, usually at the end of the year if there are funds to spare I'll donate to a bunch of FOSS projects, other non-profits, websites, etc. especially if I use them year-round.

I donate to Linux Mint every now and then.

Every Christmas, to the most used projects of the year (that are not rich already).

Sometimes

Usually I think of a one time donation as a purchase price for me or sometimes an annual subscription fee depending on how much I use it

Though the amount I put down ain't much, I still think it's a good idea

I'll soon have a salary and, as I mainly pirate music, I'd like to donate to SpotiFlyer and the artists I listen to the most. However, so far I haven't donated anything.

I’ve donated to KDE before and plan on doing again. I plan on increasing the frequency when I graduate and have a job.

I absolutely do, not necessarily on the pirating tools I use , though.

Yes, I subscribe to a few on Open Collective.

I've donated to the Mozilla Foundation, Wikipedia and Hibiscus/Jameica (banking software) in the past, but haven't in a decade or so.

Yes, Syncthing, FreeFileSync, WinSCP, KeePassXC and others.

as well as 10 euro to qBittorrent

I would rather donate to Transmission.

Bought a Home Assistant dongle to support them and have a hopefully well supported piece of hardware. Sorely disappointed in it my my old 15 dollar dongle was better.

When Keybase did its Stellar giveaway back in the day I donated some Lumens to the Tor Project and another thing I don't remember.

I've donated to Ardour for years and I pitched in at the last Kdenlive find raising. I'd like to chip in more once my budget has stabilized.

I donate about what I figure I'd spend on proprietary products in a year, about $600-800. Mostly KDE and docker containers I use like piped, mailcow, nextcloud, as well as podcasts I listen to as long as they supply an ad-free feed.

I'm broke

Yes, also generally I donate different project every 6 months (instead of recurring payment to one project).

I donate to any project I use that takes xmr.

I have a small monthly budget for donations in general. It's often niche stuff I love to use, and/or humanitarian aid

Yup, to Fediverse, this server, Calyx fondation and Signal

Not directly per se. I donate to Wikipedia, EFF, and the ACLU. I guess Wikipedia is FOSS?

I have a recurrent donation to the development of Lemmy, set up on Liberapay.

Gentoo - three digits Matrix - used to patreon, but it's dead, so I stopped Wiki - occasionally

I really need to support Postgres and Patroni. Next year's goals

I wish I could 😢

Yes, I donate $1-5 monthly to many devs.

Not yet, but I will when I get a job. I want to give back to the community, but I can't afford it right now.

not every one but the ones i particularly find useful (i monthly donate to thunderbird and firefox) or through github sponsors

I donated to libre office recently and I want to start donating to Wikipedia yearly now that I am settled in my first job

No, but I don't have a credit card, so I can't

I've donated in the past to elementaryOS, other Linux projects and separately to Wikipedia.

I've tried contributing code, but it's miniscule. I wish I could give more time.

I donated to Linux Mint once, I think it’s time to make another donation.

This time, I think I’ll donate to one of the emulator developers. I’ll have to take a look and see which platform is currently receiving updates pretty regularly. I’m learning towards ryujinx as that’s the main switch emulator I use. But I’m also considering pcsx2 as I really love that system.
