@Lhyr @devil @Vivaldi #Kagi #OrionBrowser perks don't look enticing at all for most non-technical users. On top of that, the price is actually more than what I suggested... and who wants to add yet another recurring subscription?
In any case, paying for #ethicalsoftware should become the new normal. I like what @futo_tech is doing in this regard although I hope they stick with #copyleft licensing.
@ardour also has a great business model.

Like, would you be more likely to sign up for a "pro account" or a membership or something like that for for example #Gnome, #LibreOffice, #Firefox, #Gimp, #Inkscape, or any other FOSS tool you use regularly, than you are likely to set up an automatic recurring donation – even if the status didn't actually come with any extra features or perks of any kind, other than being a member and supporting something you love?
If you found the price reasonable.

App idea for Linux: An app where I set a regular amount that I want to donate each week/month, and then it locally and privately logs how much time I spend using the different apps on my machine and distributes the money accordingly.
With different options to blacklist some apps, weigh some apps more than others, always give X amount to some apps regardless of use, also give to things that won't be tracked (like the DE), etc.
