Just donated to the effort to improve sound quality on the #Librem5 when using #pipewire: https://opencollective.com/dephcom/projects/pipewire-echo
I'd be even more happy about the approach of sponsoring development through the community if this donation would be accepted as being for an official non-profit organization accepted as such in Germany.
Giving for #OpenSource should be respected as a a benefit to the public and appreciated by the government by whatever means they do this for other purposes (in Germany it's possible to declare such donations for reducing taxes to pay).
Hey #MobileLinux community - if everybody gives a little there'll be a fair pay for someone doing this work.
@me I think Open Source Collective is registered as a not for profit in USA. Not sure if Germany will recognize non profits registered in USA.
See https://oscollective.org/ Our funds are managed by Open Source Collective.
