It started with me wanting to support Lemmy, my Lemmy instance and Voyager. Then I checked what other open source apps I had installed from F-Droid. It would exceed my budget to donate to them all, so I chose the 10 apps that I most frequently use.

Lemmy
My Lemmy instance
Aegis
DAVx5
F-Droid
Feeder
HeliBoard
KeePassDX
Öffi
Voyager
Honorable mention to AntennaPod. It was on this list, but their contribution page states that their costs are already covered.

This is just my personal list, but I thought it's a nice idea to share it and maybe others will do the same and donate to their most used open source apps and projects.

I recently heard the idea to donate monthly to one project of your choosing so the developers could rely on a steady income. I think that's a great way of doing it.

That's an even better idea! A steady income is much better than donations that may or may not arrive. Thanks for the idea, appreciate it!

That probably ideal, but it should still be spread out so the "less important" projects still get something.
