I’ve always felt guilty by taking for granted the rare breed of virtuous humans that provide free excellent software without relying on advertising. Let’s change that and pay, how much would I “lose” anyway?

I’m now on fixed income but I appreciate FOSS. I usually try to donate, especially if the project accepts bitcoin which I’ve had for a while so it costs me less. Too bad many projects don’t. That includes Wikipedia and they keep asking why I stopped.

Same. Any place asking for donations that supports Bitcoin lightning is an instant donate for me, I always give something even if it’s a small amount. Lightning fees are so low that I’m happy to give small amounts whereas otherwise I’m worried my $3 donation will turn into $0.50 by the time it reaches the organization if it’s through Paypal or whoever.
