Also Wikipedia is very well funded, there are a lot of smaller projects running on shoestring budgets
Honestly, I don't care. At this point, looking at the smoking hellscape the internet has become, looking at what happened to wikia, I don't care if they're getting funded or not, I'm donating. Wikipedia and the Internet Archive are some of that last bastions of the internet the way it was meant to be. We simply can't lose them the way we've lost so many others.
It's really to curb my own anxiety more than anything else. It's the only thing I can do to reinforce the bulwark, and I'm gonna do it, because I can rest a little bit easier knowing that bulwark is a little bit stronger.
