It started with me wanting to support Lemmy, my Lemmy instance and Voyager. Then I checked what other open source apps I had installed from F-Droid. It would exceed my budget to donate to them all, so I chose the 10 apps that I most frequently use.
- Lemmy
- My Lemmy instance
- Aegis
- DAVx5
- F-Droid
- Feeder
- HeliBoard
- KeePassDX
- Öffi
- Voyager
- Honorable mention to AntennaPod. It was on this list, but their contribution page states that their costs are already covered.
This is just my personal list, but I thought it’s a nice idea to share it and maybe others will do the same and donate to their most used open source apps and projects.

I do this too! $5/month to Fedilab, Wikipedia, OrganicMaps, AntennaPod, Signal, among others. Gotta support open source!
I just went through F-Droid and counted out all the projects I have on my phone. At £5 each I’m looking at an annual bill of about £70/year… Bargain.
Thanks for the idea!
I didn’t know about öffi, thought it would only cover Germany but it supports much more countries. Thanks for the tip!
