    Alright, we step up and financially fill these gaps to the best of our abilities. And I can’t help but feel this was a deliberate swipe at suppressing speech and info sharing while him and his toadies blow everything up.

      I think it’s simpler than that. I think they don’t understand or see value in FOSS, so they’re happy to cut it.

      I do, so I’m going willing to help donate.

        It’s simper than that. They don’t see the value in freedom, autonomy, etc.

        Stupidity sounds like the more likely option, but I bet if they knew what the grants were for, they’d be cut out of malice instead. Lose-lose.

    Do we know how much they missed out on total, all of them added together? It would be cool to have a bar to track how much of the shortfall we as supporters could make up.
