I do this too! $5/month to Fedilab, Wikipedia, OrganicMaps, AntennaPod, Signal, among others. Gotta support open source!
I am doing 5-10$ rounds of donations (4-10 projects each generally) to my favourite projects too on a regular basis. I favor XMR transactions as is it largely accepted those days and fees are appropriate for such low amounts.
I just went through F-Droid and counted out all the projects I have on my phone. At £5 each I'm looking at an annual bill of about £70/year... Bargain.
Thanks for the idea!
my lemmy instance
Oh dude I love it! I recently donated to Thunderbird. My first Open Source donation (apart from Wikipedia). Feels good. I generally contribute through testing, but once I start earning a good amount, I'm gonna do what you did...
Funny you post this, I just bought premium for KeePassDX this morning.
I donate to a few things (eff, fsf, Mozilla, kvaesitso, my Lemmy instance, tasks.org) but want to donate to more (guix, keepassdx, syncthing, eternity, maybe some others).
I didn't know about öffi, thought it would only cover Germany but it supports much more countries. Thanks for the tip!
