#63- Libreoffice - Internet Archive - Wikipedia - Bandcamp - a bit off-topic but the music industry has become an exponentially distributed winner-takes-all game. I resist by buying underground music on Bandcamp - it's an exemplary web platform, gives generous cuts to the artist, and you own the files. Even if I only listen to the song a couple times it feels good knowing 80% of the money is going straight to talented a…
I will second what you say about Bandcamp which I've also been supporting for years.
They also have Bandcamp Fridays, usually once a month, where 100% of the proceeds go to the artists (granted, there are a lot of labels on BC these days too, but still seems to be underground music in my experience).

#66To everyone here: THANKS for donating to projects and initiatives that you consider precious, and worth donating to.
Most of us live a busy life, and it's usually hard to stop for a moment and think of the many things around us that make living better, even if it's a tiny open source project that solves a little, almost unknown, problem, run by some random guy in Hungary or Minnesota or Sicily.
I'd bet that a fair number of us on HN have some form of disposable assets / money, and that a small donation will not ruin our lives. Some of us might have an even larger capacity to donate. It's nice when we find the time to appreciate something, and decide to support it at least with our money, if not with a bit of our time and effort.
Side note: I am worried about robots, and am actively looking for a project that could make robot OS or components or the AI/brain that drives them, more human and less harmful. If you know anything worth exploring, please share.

#69More for the preservation of physical freedom than digital, so maybe unrelated, but anyway ... Drones for Ukraine https://www.dronynemesis.cz/en
Glad you shared, I was wondering about the same. Many of my donations are going to support various drone campaigns from Estonia in support of Ukraine https://www.help99.co/patches
