    Ugh, I wish I was in a good place financially to donate to everything I use… There are so many great KDE projects, and non-kde FOSS projects too! One day…

    Okular, KDE connect, plasma, krita, freecad, libre office, KiCAD, local send, antennapod, gadgetbridge, immich, paperless, bookstack, home assistant & esphome, leantime… The list goes on, but even if I only gave 5€ per month to each, that would be more than 75€ per month and that is way above my budget with our renovation costs.

    Not even to mention the good YouTube creators too! Maybe if I get a bonus at the end of this year I can spare 150€ or so.

      @JustEnoughDucks Yeah, I’d also love to have more disposable income to redirect towards incredible FOSS projects and creators… :/

      KDE is essentially on the top of my priority list because I use their software multiple hours every single day, pretty much. With this recent fundraiser, I thought I’d chip in.

      Don’t feel bad about not being able to contribute more, though! Any help is very much welcome and means a lot, even if small :3

      KDE, GNOME, Linux etc. all help by having one big foundation for loads of projects. It would be nice to have some foundations for other projects that don’t/can’t fill those particular niches.
