    That’s like donating to wikipedia, you think you’re doing a good thing but they reveal pretty quickly how big of a mistake that actually was.

        They require you give them an email and then once you do they spam it relentlessly.

          Plus, they’re pretty notoriously well off at this point. If I’m gonna donate I prefer to go with the internet archive, since they actually need the help.

          Maybe they’ve changed because I donate and also contribute as an editor, and checking my email, I’ve only received one email* from them all year, and that was on January 6th titled “A record of your support for Wikipedia” from the Wikimedia Foundation, and it was a thanks and a tax receipt.

          Maybe there’s a consent checkbox somewhere that I don’t remember unchecking.

          *not counting notifications received in my role as contributor.
