Financial support is never a requirement to be part of the Terminal Tilt community. Digital sovereignty should be an empowerment, not a financial burden.
If you are tight on funds, please do not donate. The best way to help me grow is through advocacy:

Accessibility is a FOSS value. ♿️
You might ask why I advocate for #OpenSource so fiercely as a disabled creator. It is simple, proprietary software is a black box. If it doesn't work for your needs, you're stuck.
With #FOSS, the community can adapt, fork, and improve tools for everyone. Freedom isn't just for power users, it is for accessibility.
For instance, there is BRLTTY, which provides access to the Linux console for people who use a refreshable Braille display.
But people naturally think of physical disabilities when they consider accessibility. We also need tools for cognitive load and distraction. Tools like Logseq allow you to link thoughts non-linearly, making it easier to track projects when your brain feels scattered. Even the stability of Debian can be an accessibility tool for those of us who find the constant breaking changes of other OSs anxiety-inducing.
What is one FOSS tool that makes your life easier? :gnu: :tux: ♿️ 🏳️🌈
