It started with me wanting to support Lemmy, my Lemmy instance and Voyager. Then I checked what other open source apps I had installed from F-Droid. It would exceed my budget to donate to them all, so I chose the 10 apps that I most frequently use.
- Lemmy
- My Lemmy instance
- Aegis
- DAVx5
- F-Droid
- Feeder
- HeliBoard
- KeePassDX
- Öffi
- Voyager
- Honorable mention to AntennaPod. It was on this list, but their contribution page states that their costs are already covered.
This is just my personal list, but I thought it's a nice idea to share it and maybe others will do the same and donate to their most used open source apps and projects.
I recently heard the idea to donate monthly to one project of your choosing so the developers could rely on a steady income. I think that's a great way of doing it.
That's an even better idea! A steady income is much better than donations that may or may not arrive. Thanks for the idea, appreciate it!
