my take on this, from a denominational funder who changed my perspective re: paying for what pays me- if you don't sustain the things closest to your heart, no one else is going to do it for you, and the more niche the thing is, the more it has to be you, if it's YOUR niche. Tons of people will give to NPR. Only Unitarian Universalists will support UU and its institutions. Different field, obviously, and YMMV.

This is exactly my take as well, I fund Julialang, Keepass2Android, Signal, OpenWrt and a few others with small monthly donations because they're super important to me and I don't want a world where they stopped existing because there wasn't enough money coming in.
I'd like a foundation that takes one payment in and then makes proportional payments out to as many projects as I set up. I suspect more people would do this if it were easy.
