I donate money to a free and open source project each quarter, always selecting one that has impacted my life during that period.

The final one for 2025 just went out: the FreeBSD foundation (FreeBSD Foundation (npub1kkf…6dgf)) ?

I know they put the money to good use. I run FreeBSD on my primary laptop and almost all my servers, and the progress from the Laptop Support & Usability Project has been amazing! Our Mastodon instance burningboard.net also runs on FreeBSD.

Q3/2025: Nitrokey (Nitrokey (npub1rqk…dxqz))
Q2/2025: Linux Foundation (The Linux Foundation (npub1nsd…7jsu))
Q1/2025: KDE e.V. (KDE (npub1ncy…3x0q))
