Supporting small creators that contribute to the creative commons, or free software developers using the money saved! This is like, protesting proprietary stuff, while using the saved resources to support creators that respect our right to reuse/remix instead. I hope that makes sense lol

There are more ways to help Open Source and sometimes opening well documented bug tickets with information on how the devs can replicate a problem or by improving the publicly facing documentation or opening a PR request is as valuable or even more valuable to the project as money donations.

My point is even if you guys can't have the financial means to donate, you can still help by spending some of your free time to help an open source project and that would be equally valuable!
