Not financial advice
Yesterday, a close friend of mine, hurt my feelings by insulting a project of mine. So now, I am using this to become a better person. This is not an Isekai title, it’s a TL;DR of what lead to this post.
This lead to me to a financially unwise decision that (thanks to the tism) I will not go back on: I will be handing out money to those that don’t ask, but give anyway. I don’t have any illusions of creating a trend here, though by all means feel free to copy me, I am doing it in the hope of keeping the FLOSS-community alive and well, in the big and the small things.
Anyway. Here is a list of where this year’s donations went12. I plan on publishing this each year going forth, and I would like to especially thank my army of 1 GitHub Sponsors for letting me feel the warm fuzzies myself that I can hopefully now pass on to some more.

- qbit for maintaining not only OpenBSD software, but also an environment for young Gophers to ask questions
- diamondburned for the many times this year, she has unstuck my brain
- fyne for making a native UI toolkit for Go
- gio for that as well
- syncthing for… well… syncthing
- lukevella for Rally
- offen web analytics for doing it the right way
- ku1ik for asciinema
- mumble for the cooler TeamSpeak
- curl
Who I didn’t sponsor3:

- mpv for their awesome media player
