@thisven Thank you for asking! As an individual, set aside a donations budget you're comfortable with, and divide it between large organizations supporting core infrastructure (e.g. SFC, SPI, Mozilla) and individual projects you rely on. Support admins of your Fedi instance. If you have time to spare, help with documentation, bugs triage, translations. As an organization, invest in keeping your entire dependency graph healthy, not just leaf tools you use.
