What is your favorite way to give a little financial support to someone (e.g. FOSS developers 😜 )?

A bit torn on this, tbh. Not endorsing GitHub per se, but they do (for now) pass all the money over without taking a cut.

@richardstocks @alcinnz 100% agree. I am wary of Github, but until there is a viable replacement for their sponsorship mechanism, they've done well with it.. Like you say, they don't collect fees and are good about providing proper tax documents at the end of the year. My monthly support has dwindled lately; it's really not viable to support FOSS purely on the kindness of strangers.
