When I was younger my friend group got in a heated debate about something semantic for fun. The opposite side from me tried to prove their point by editing Wikipedia and showing it to me. They had to show a screen shot because it had changed back in the time they ran from the computer lab to the lunch room, I used this in my arguments every time we argued about it after that.

I did a few times but not in the recent years. I don’t know exactly why.

I do, at least once a year (nothing excessive), mainly because I use the website occasionally. It's the same reason I bought 'reddit coins' or whatever that used to be. I just wanted to contribute to a useful service, especially given that there is so much garbage out there

Absolutely, I've been using it since my teens and it's been an invaluable resource to me.

I am planning on giving more monthly in the future once my finacial situation changes.

I'm cycling through multiple open source projects, the last one was signal. I tried to donate to Mozilla once, but they have the worst UX on their form and I'm not giving them my money AND my data.

I have before, but I was crippled by a conservative pedo ran corporation called The Home Depot. So it's not in the budget currently. Hide yo kids if you go in there.

I've donated once, but never again after i found out how they hoard the money and use it for all kinds of politically motivated stuff.

Several times. I think now they have more than enough money so I haven't in a while.

Among other projects I belive is beneficial to the world. It's Libre software and provides free (CC-by-SA) knowledge without making you a product. I only made a one time 3$ donation but I might donate more in the future.

You can’t donate to Wikipedia, only to wiki media, which spends it on all kinds of shit.

Yes. As a frequent user, I donate $10 from time to time. I also use my editing rights to fix mistakes when/if I see them.

I give them £12/year.

Yes, I do 20USD/mo, I think, because I've taken up what I've been calling "Secular Tithing" in the last few years, and Wikimedia and its ventures were useful learning and research tools for my undergrad and highschool. Less so during my master's, but that's just how that goes.

Have just signed up for monthly donations (only £1.40)

Not anymore.

Used to use them a lot as a student, so now that I can, I donate occasionally. I don't have a problem with them basically gaming the system like SHITPOSTING_ACCOUNT said in another comment, and I'm aware of it.

Whenever they put that "Dear reader, if everyone reading this sent $X, etc" notice at the top of an article, I send whatever the amount they mention in the notice is.

I've only ever noticed it like 5 times since I started doing that a bunch of years ago - not sure if that means they don't ask that often, or if it means I don't visit them often enough to always see it.

Yes because people are dumb enough as it is

I do regularly. I used it a lot and I think knowledge should be free.

I donate 3$ monthly. Not an insane amount, but there's a lot of great information on there.

I haven't donated since getting bothered with atrocious banner campaigns.

I used to give $39 every few months, but like Solomon, it became too bendable by higher powers, something I mean generally and in more ways than one, so I now advocate it just adopt ads or something.

I did until they stopped accepting my donation method. Fools

Absolutely! I use it all the time and the more resources they have, the more all my old teachers will have to eat their words.
