Sure!
For regular one-time donations:
- Debian => $500 once a year (typically in the summer)
- Free Software Foundation => $500 once a year (typically around the new year)
- MetaARPA membership on the SDF => $36 once a year (in August)
For regular ongoing donations:
- $60/half year to the OpenBSD Foundation for OpenBSD (once for each release - I used to buy each CD set but they don't sell them anymore)
- $20/month to the OpenBSD Foundation to support OpenSSH, LibreSSL, and OpenNTPd
- $5/month to a niche forum that I post to on occasion
- $5/month to a podcast that I listen to
- $6/month to a BandCamp artist that I listen to
For other projects, I'll keep an eye on their calls for donation for specific things and support them one-off as I can. GnuCash says I've donated about $5000 over the last ten years or so doing that.
