Nope, I've donated to the internet archive because I have infinity more respect for them and they actually need more funding.

Wikipedia has more than they know what to do with, the money just falls out of their pockets

Came here to say the same thing. The Internet Archive needs the money a lot more and are constantly battling legal threats. I donate to them every now and then. Librarians and archivists rule.

They need it more since all these lawsuits they are facing
