    I don’t play computer games and I rarely buy commercial software of any other kind. The majority of my computer time is spent using FOSS applications. I try to give at least a few dollars every month toward each tool that I use on a regular basis. Among other things, I contribute to Lemmy, Voyager, and the Lemmy.Ca site. Overall it amounts to supporting more than a dozen projects for a total of around $50 per month.

    I wish I could afford to do more, but I try to do what I can. Some projects are part-time and some make up the primary income for the developers. All of them are contributing their time without demanding payment to make our lives better. They deserve our support, in whatever form we can give it.
