Thank you for answering and honest cheers on doing that. I don't think people behind these projects have enough support or credit. And as little as 1.3k can be seen in IT, it goes directly into supporting their passion projects benefiting us as a whole (:

@andrew_bidlaw you would be surprised. Many projects are so short on money that you can make people so happy. Sometimes, even giving 100€ was life-changing for some people we supported 😲

Indeed. If only I wasn't in fucking russia. It feels like FOSS suporting may finally lead me to learning crypto, in non speculative ways, only to support what these chads are doing. The Atlants, bearing the world I can regularly shitpost to on their shoulders.
