I’m making a quick list to be sure to support projects that have a positive impact on my digital life, at the crossroads of selfhosting and privacy.
Selfhosting is currently more of a hobby (fiddling, note-taking and media serving), and looking at my Portainer stack right now, I’m thinking of PiHole, Jellyfin, Homarr and Homepage.
Some projects like FileBrowser, PiGallery2 and Audiobookshelf don’t seem to have a way to contribute financially.
Any well-know project that might be in near-critical condition/need of support? Which projects are you planning to donate to?
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)
I just donated to freefilesync. I donate randomly when I feel though.
Runtipi
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)
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.
OctoPrint .
A 3D printer without OctoPrint is possible, but useless.I’ll be donating to Termux. I think its an exceptional idea with an amazing execution.
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.

JellyFin is a great one. They’re needing the support due to a lack of devs.
None.
Jellyfin and neovim!
Probably iTerm2. Use it everyday.
Coolify, amazing project!
None. If you wanted paid you would’ve charged for it.
