I would donate to (and have donated to some of) the following:

  • postmarketOS and the people porting Linux to phones
  • Panfrost devs
  • Nouveau/NVK
  • Yuzu (to get better Intel Arc support on Linux)
  • Libraries I use in OpenRGB

I already donate to one of the libraries I use on GitHub sponsors, also the box86 developer and a few others. I am donating to the UVTools developer as it was cheaper than paying for the shitty proprietary software subscription for my resin printer. I've donated to pmOS in the past as well as Debian and Arch.

Agreed on the first one: We need more Linux phones!

The problem is that we don't have much native apps like android and ios.

Yes but it does have it's downsides, for example it can consume more battery and more computational power to do the same tasks of a native app or it's not compatible with every Android app out there.

Sure but It works for the few apps I need (Banking, Public Transport). Also waydroid is not a vm but rather a container which reduces overhead.
