I spread out my donations, so less to more projects. I also try to prioritize projects that need financial help the most.
So as an example, the Linux Mint project is very well funded (especially this year, where they are receiving 30k+ per month) so I personally stopped donating to them so I could shift that money to a project that would benefit far more from the relatively small amounts I can share, such as the Movim project, which is attempting to completely replace Discord with a FLOSS solution, but was only receiving like $40 a month before they started a funding campaign a few days ago.
Figure it’ll do far more good there to help the dude cover his expenses for providing such a valuable service to us all for free.
