No thank you. The corporate entities that rely on these projects can support them and should. On a personal level I’d rather support the truly struggling dev who’s just having fun programming with no endgame. I’m not seeing that in this list but it’s not intended for an individual like me.

The about-page specifically calls out that 'Deep dependencies are not receiving financial support' - which is a very hard problem to solve. So I'm happy that there are more and more people looking into this.
Having said that - within the Python ecosystems, both boto3 (AWS) and azure-sdk-for-python are receiving funding [2]? I don't know what approach they take in determining which projects receive funding, but I assume that still needs some (manual) fine-tuning.
