Edit: After seeing the bandwagon, dogpiling reaction from the community for simply trying to donate, I wont bother donating to this project even if they support cryptocurrencies.

Good job, assholes.

    It’s easier. I just donated to blender because they support crypto. I don’t have to make an account. I don’t have to give out bank account info.

    On a philosophical note, cryptocurrencies can free us from the control of banks. That lack of centralization should be appealing to people in the free software community.

    I was going to donate to godot, but they don’t support it. And it’s not even about being limited to “the few I choose.” Supporting crypto at all encourages more people to, you know, use those coins.

    I didn’t even mention a specific coin. It’s sad that you all are bandwagoning and in the process costing the project money. It’s ridiculously easy to set up a wallet and have a link to donate, but it looks like the snowball effect has taken hold and now that’s one less option people have to support the project.
