consider donating half (or even a tenth) of what you would've paid for the commercial alternative, to the free/opensource projects you're using instead.
Imagine how much these could develop if everyone paid the same as they pay commercial parties, we could easily make these the dominant tools we use; a world where all the tools are available to everyone regardless of income is a hell of a way to provide equity to the creators of the world, similar to what UBI would do ✨
