I’m making a quick list to be sure to support projects that have a positive impact on my digital life, at the crossroads of selfhosting and privacy.
Selfhosting is currently more of a hobby (fiddling, note-taking and media serving), and looking at my Portainer stack right now, I’m thinking of PiHole, Jellyfin, Homarr and Homepage.
Some projects like FileBrowser, PiGallery2 and Audiobookshelf don’t seem to have a way to contribute financially.
Any well-know project that might be in near-critical condition/need of support? Which projects are you planning to donate to?
I just donated to freefilesync. I donate randomly when I feel though.
Audiobookshelf would be the primary donation, as I’ve had thousands of hours of usage from it… I use it everywhere and all the time, when I’m working, travelling or just relaxing. In addition, I’ve often liked the idea of sponsoring a couple of features (A list-view, and folder-structure browsing)
I usually take $100 and find 10 projects I used that year. But EFF, tor, tails, and qubes-os are always on the repeat donation list.
Debian & Immich
JellyFin is a great one. They’re needing the support due to a lack of devs.
Home Assistant, evcc
Signal
Immich and Planka (if I can find a way)
I involuntary donated all of my tax money to my government. Sadly got not much left. I already gave something to signal. Maybe I will give something neovim, but I first have to get some Christmas presents.
Jellyfin Immich Paperless-ngx
The last couple of years I have been donating to Gluetun.
The dev is very responsive to feature requests, and I don’t know how I would get along without it now.
wish i could afford to if i had the money debian, openwrt and pterodactyl would be the main ones
use them the mostchangedetection.io just donated to the awesome crew over at ntfy.sh
having those kinds of notifications is a key part for our software to achieve what it does.
Contribute monthly to Arch, Gnome, & LibreOffice.
Made a one-time donation to Remmina.
