    Last week, @staltz published an article looking at the funding of open source projects.

    It's a long-form article full of nuance:

    https://staltz.com/software-below-the-poverty-line.html

    Tl/dr: More needs to be done to fund open development, including more pressure on companies to donate to projects they benefit from, unionising, alternative licences and more donations in general.

    This made me wonder, should there be a day on the Fediverse where we promote donations to a particular project? For example a #SupportSunday?
