I shared a version of this guide earlier this year, but felt a website was needed to unpack the different options fully. So after an unreasonable number of hours, I put together the necessary data and website.

I hope this is digestible enough for the average person to help those looking to take that first step, or for people who are equally passionate and want to get their friends or family involved.

2c

Personally, I agree and have in the past put it in the left column. Right now I have settled for having a disclaimer against its name and might make that more prominent in the overview pages as well. https://purchasewithpurpose.eu/software/D5JUoM1dZysf7JJgTAWXy/
