I log all my donations so I have a list to copy-paste. Some of them I cannot donate to anymore (e.g.: Linux Mint) because they use PayPal which shadow-banned me. Perhaps because I kept using virtual single-use cards, and using like 50 different cards may look suspicious. But anyway, fuck PayPal.
So, the list with amounts removed (they're too low):
Linux Mint
TeamSeas
Manjaro
OpenCollective tips
Tor Project
Internet Archive (archive.org)
The Document Foundation (LibreOffice)
Arch Linux
KDE
Mozilla
F-Droid
Termux
db0 Lemmy instance (lemmy.dbzer0.com)
Arne Schwabe (dev of Android OVPN client)
Deluan Quintao (dev of Navidrome server)
Arty Bishop (dev of Look4Sat)
sc07 (Fediverse Canvas creator)
IPcko
Markus Fisch (dev of Binary Eye)
VideoLAN
ochranma.sk
Meshtastic
Kiwix
Municia pre Ukrajinu
FFmpeg

Lemmy
That is just a full list of every place I ever donated to. I couldn't afford for them to be recurring.
Some of them you probably won't know as they're only relevant in my country (Slovakia). I'll try to quickly describe them, I have a long day tomorrow and only 5 hours left to sleep (and it's shortening).
IPcko - Mostly a suicide helpline, but they do a lot more too. Constantly underfunded and this year the government cut their budget even more. They provide help over phone, chat and e-mail, but also have teams that can go meet the person, physical offices ("Káčko") across the country where you can speak to a therapist if you're doing too bad (for free) and some more stuff like clubs where people can meet and (try to) have fun... I am too tired to name all, sorry.
ochranma.sk - Part of INHOPE network. Up until recently we had no way to report CSAM (this was started in 2022), and in 2018 and 2019 we had the second (to Netherlands) highest count of known occurrences of CSAM sharing, even surpassing USA and Russia. Mind you, we have a population of 5.5 million...
Municia pre Ukrajinu - "If not the government, then us" - Money to fund purchase of ammunition for Ukraine in cooperation with Czech Republic (our government refused to help Ukraine, thus the slogan)
Edit: That info is from mind mind, I need sleep. May not be accurate.
