      When Gratipay existed, they didn't take a cut (financial transaction fees were covered by donor or recipient). They survived on dogfooding[1]. Liberapay operates the same way. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eating_your_own_dog_food https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eating_your_own_dog_food

  I can make something up, but would love to see a guide to how to donate broadly to open source. Apache, GNU, Ubuntu, libinput? I've been doing this myself with a combo of one-off donations (Ubuntu, Pop OS, libinput) plus experimenting with Github Sponsors on one project. Here's an example from TripleByte of their employee-directed donations: https://triplebyte.com/open-source-donations https://triplebyte.com/open-source-donations

      Would this just be one org to donate to? Or do they donate to lots of other orgs?

  Half wits sudo-apt-getting donated code only to turn around and insist that they don't need to implement any code appropriately. You owe them new features. And more And more. Until they break your mind body and/or soul.
