Is anyone aware of examples of research software projects successfully (or not) using micro-funding such as online tip jars, github sponsorship or similar?
Can research institutions even make use of funds in this way?
Can researcher users even make donations like this (other than from their own pockets)?
Could a project make up enough funding to provide any meaningful support? Or are they mostly too small?

What does The Carpentries actually do?
We help researchers build practical data and computational skills and we train people to teach those skills to others.
That approach has helped grow a global community:
• 5,405 𝐜𝐞𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐟𝐢𝐞𝐝 𝐈𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐬
• 185 𝐈𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐨𝐫 𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐬
• 4,965 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐩𝐬 𝐭𝐚𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐢𝐧 72 𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬.But the real impact is personal.
“Changed my career trajectory in a very positive way.”

Do you enjoy contributing to #FOSS / #OpenSource and #academia? You could sign up to be a reviewer for the Journal of Open Source Software.
:cyberheart_purple:
You might also help me personally :)
For any #Dart heads out there, my library is in the @joss review process. We need some more reviewers, and in general there are only a couple of Dart reviewers registered for the journal.
My submission: https://github.com/openjournals/joss-reviews/issues/9352

"RSD gives rich context to the research software. It can track the activity on the project (for GitHub, GitLab, @Codeberg, etc), track citations to key literature, and can have links to distributions where the software is published (like @debian, CRAN, @bioconductor, etc)."

The joint plenary by #NFDI4Biodiversity and #NFDI4Earth continues with two Bar Camp style sessions with diverse topics contributed by the participants, pitched to the group, and magically ✨ turned into a programme.
Great job by the organisers who made it possible that we provide an opportunity for anybody to share their work, questions and get new inputs.

What’s getting in the way of maintaining and sharing your research software? 👀
At #SciPy2025 pyOpenSci hosted a Birds of a Feather (BoF) to ask that very question, and the community showed up with insight, vulnerability, and solutions.
From confusing packaging tools to cultural barriers in academia, we break down the biggest pain points and what we’re doing next.
