In other words, “No.”
Not that it’s good that Mozilla spends money on that stuff. But for $50-$100/year you want not just a web reference, but significant control over the company that produces it. That’s just not going to happen, so you might as well just say, “No.”
- wsc981 6y agoNot really a donation (more a purchase), but what I like with Humble Bundle [0] is that I can choose what percentage of money I want to give to which organisation. Usually there are 3 options: - The developers of the software in the bundle - Humble Bundle organisation - Charities Usually I send 90% of my "donation" to the developers of the software and 10% to the Humble Bundle organisation. Perhaps charities should have a similar donation mechanism where one can choose what percentage of ones' donation should be spent on: - Management - Marketing - Field workers - Charity itself - Other ...? Given such options, I might choose to spend 5% on Management, 10% on field workers and remaining 85% on the charity itself. --- [0]: https://www.humblebundle.com https://www.humblebundle.com
