Hello, world! 👐

This is the hacker.charity project, and here I'm going to share the open source projects that I add to the aggregator.

I created the list from my personal LibreCalc spreadsheet, which I had been maintaining for several years.

I hope you'll find it useful. ❤️

Added ‪@veilid.com and i2pd to the hacker.charity!

Veilid develops an app framework for p2p applications and their docs seem promising!

i2pd implements a C++ daemon and clients of the I2P network.

The projects deserve some love considering modern censorship.

Added the @accrescent.app to our donation filters. If you haven't heard about them yet, that's an alternative Android App store with a focus on security.

A great addition to F-Droid on an ungoogled phone!🛡️

Just added great libretube.dev and github.com/TeamPiped/Pi... projects to my donation list. Great software to avoid Google's surveillance while still accessing tons of educational and useful YouTube content.

@matrix.org has gone from $0 to $561K in recurring revenue in just 2 years. But our expenses run $1.2M/yr. We've burned through reserves and are at a crossroads.
