What about all the other comments in this post that keep pointing out that the author of the comic is a Nazi? You really seem not to care about that detail

"I don't know half of you half as well as I should like, and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve."

I also often question whether the thing I'd like to post needs to be posted (and in the process, I talk myself out of it)

Lmao serious 'fuck you' energy.

Out of curiosity I went to the project's page and saw more info on why they don't take donations:

Free. Open-source. For users by users. No donations sought. If you ever want to contribute something, think about the people working hard to maintain the filter lists you are using, which are available to use by all for free.

I'd like to add to the sentiment of this post by saying that if you ever used any of those amazing websites, I'm sure the developers will highly appreciate it if those with the means could consider contributing to their projects.

We all know how greedy and shameless YouTube can be, and yet those developers give us incredible products for free. And if you ever saw the entitled requests of some users on their projects' pages whenever YouTube implements some changes, and they have to rush to fix their code, I'm sure you would appreciate them even more. I've personally seen quite a few projects being abandoned because of the sometimes thankless job of being a developer, and I would hate it for any of these to suffer a similar fate.

So if you can and are willing, feel free to join me in contributing to:

For China, I would also add the social credit score which relies a lot on facial recognition...a real nightmare

I honestly can't understand why in a world of open source alternatives, one would be OK with an option that shows you ads in exchange for spying on you

You can take your pick from this mega thread. Hope it helps!

That just makes no sense. Next you'll tell me that onions have no business in making my Tor experience more anonymous either?
