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)

Just donated to OctoPrint! Use it all the time and it's been rock solid for years!

Kimai - this is one system which has helped me the most last year!

I do automatic monthly donations to the Frigate project. It's provided a ton of value so me, so I support the project on an ongoing basis through a gitbub sponsorship: https://github.com/sponsors/blakeblackshear

Codeberg

Not a software project, but eff.org. For software, signal.org.

I've also just subscribed to simplelogin premium and i consider it a pseudo donation too since it does have a huge impact on my email management.

Joplin & joplin Firefox plugin, Jellyfin, VLC, Keepassium, KeepassXC, Syncthing, lutris, Homeassistant, Okular, KDE, KDE Connect, Kubuntu

Opnsense. Switched to it right after the whole pfSense plus fiasco.

None, because I'm a developer of a self-hosted project. So I figure I contribute enough....😁

Gotten so much use out of immich this year, I started sponsoring monthly

OctoPrint .
A 3D printer without OctoPrint is possible, but useless.

Jellyfin and neovim!

Librephotos. The best google photos alternative.

Signal

Trilium Notes!

changedetection.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.

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.

Probably iTerm2. Use it everyday.

Monetarily - I already support Home Assistant through Nabu Casa. .. donate to PiHole on a non-scheduled basis, a couple of times a year. .. send in an annual to wikipedia.

I donate my time to Apache Software Foundation.

None.

Runtipi

Home Assistant, evcc

What I do is take my yearly donation budget and divide it up to all of the projects (don't forget about those libraries, dependencies, etc)

FreeBSD & GrapheneOS

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.

Django project. I use it at my startup.

Vaultwarden

None. If you wanted paid you would've charged for it.

I'll be donating to Termux. I think its an exceptional idea with an amazing execution.

Vaultwarden, Wikipedia, Vox Pupuli (Puppet)

(Bu not specifically this time of the year, it's a monthly small amount)

Reactive Resume https://github.com/AmruthPillai/Reactive-Resume

Disclaimer: I maintain the project :)

Buttercup.pw

Contribute monthly to Arch, Gnome, & LibreOffice.

Made a one-time donation to Remmina.

Jellyfin Immich Paperless-ngx

I've donated to Immich several times. So impressed by their work.

Donating?

wish i could afford to if i had the money debian, openwrt and pterodactyl would be the main ones ~~use them the most~~

Fasten

Coolify, amazing project!

My HumbleBundle donations go to the EFF, which is my indirect way of supporting Let's Encrypt. I used to support the Internet Archive before they went political (and, consequently, to shit).

Debian.

The "OG" of linux distros that is still around and very active now after ~30 years, but most of all, its run entirely by the community. Project leaders are elected by contributors, there is no company backing them and no company influencing the project.

FreeBSD

Signal

Debian & Immich

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.

United24.
