I think like Archive.org deserve a bit more attention as I feel Wikipedia is doing good enough.

I have done so on occasion.

I get quite a lot of good out of Wikipedia.

According to the wikimedia foundation the costs for hosting the service are covered for the next decades. Most of their money goes to lobbying and other political efforts.

So no. I like their website and am happy to help keep that funded but for now they don’t need help doing that

Not regularly, but once or twice. I think a lot more people should donate to the internet archive though.

Every so often, yeah. Usually $10-$20CAD or so.

Nope. But that's just because I'm wayward and perpetually broke. If I had my shit together I for sure would because it's been one of my main sources of information through the years, whether it's an interesting article or lists of things to collect / watch / listen to. And it's not enshitified or tacky and provides information in text form and not video form. So if it stays that way, the magical future me that is finally financially stable definitely will.

Once a year, $10 or so

When they plaster that "If everyone reading this donated $x.yz right now, we'd be done within the hour" message I'll usually donate exactly the amount it says.

Every single year. $20 or $25

I barely have money to keep myself alive, let alone the sum of all human knowledge's website.

I donate monthly to Wikipedia, Signal, and Octoprint.
Probably cheaper than Netflix too nowadays.

I have in the past. I don't donate that much or that often as they are well funded and would like to help other projects as well. I don't make good money, so I often don't give more than a few dollars, but will try and do so recurring.

Yes. It's important.

Occasionally

Yeah, each year 😄

I would, if I got money. Even if most money goes to lobbying, as another user said.

I have in the past, yes.

I used to until they started getting naggy over email and started guilt trippy on their donation messages.

I read that Wikipedia is totally solvent. It needs no money.

However, I have also read that the Wikimedia foundation (which runs Wikipedia) uses a lot of money on other things, including giving money to other nonprofits..

Wikimedia Spending

"Wikipedia has cancer"

Yes. A decent amount per month and my company matches.

Yes, monthly.

About once a year I do something like $25. It’s about the time of year I do my NPR donation and anything else I have been procrastinating.

Seems like everyone with an AI chatbot should be giving them billions

Yup

I haven't donated recently but am planning to do so again once I've found a stable job

No

When I can. It’s an important source and has helped me out a lot. Plus where would I be without my Wikipedia rabbit hole dives

Yes, I usually do so at the end-of-the-year funding drive they always have between Thanksgiving and Christmas. The amount generally varies based on how much I’ve used it each year and how generous I feel, but I do think it’s a useful service, and I don’t want to see them having to resort to showing advertisements in order to pay their bills.

Yeah during the donation drive $5 or whatever the number they are asking for

I've donated information but never money.
