Can you guys share some links to open source software or projects that you support with a monthly or one-time donation? It might turn into a cool list. Open source software is super important beyond just avoiding lock-in models, and a few donations can really save crucial projects.

@polarity @roger_booth i prefer this over phoscyon and abl303 because it does not have e.g. sequencer, yet another delay and stuff like that which is not that useful...

@roger_booth @polarity with their hardware designs I think the project is doing good for audio industry because their work can cut some of the R&D costs for small businesses and (crowd funded) startups alike. So I definitely would want support such good work for the community.

edit: oops s/hard/hardware/ :-)
