I'm broke
Not too broke to own a PC or smart phone to be here, so easy excuse imo. Small bits also help, it's the gesture that counts.
Don't shame others into donating please.
In order to participate in modern life you have to own a device which is able to connect to the internet. Also older devices get often gifted away to those who can less afford them.
I'm definitely not trying to shame anyone. Just saying it's the gesture that counts. Even donating 1, 2, 5 dollars makes a difference. It's a big thank you to all the devs who make all these awesome apps and tools for free. And in my opinion nobody is too broke to show their appreciation for these people, even if it's just a very small amount. It makes a hell of a difference to those devs.
Downvoted for making a point to support devs who built FOSS. I'm getting some "nice" Reddit vibes here.
