  • Jumbo Sponsors #1 & #2
    • You two both know who you are. :)
      Thank you for your on-going support since 2022. It has directly enabled me to achieve my goals with this work over the years.
  • 2024 Grant #1
    • FUTO has generously awarded DivestOS one of their legendary grants.
  • 2024 Fundraiser: $12,000
    • 2024-02-24: It has been fifty days, and thanks to nearly two hundred generous donations the goal has been met early. I greatly appreciate and am thankful for this level of support. Thank you! - Tavi.
    • 2024-01-05: Happy New Year! DivestOS and the Divested projects as they currently stand are ultimately unsustainable. My goal for 2023 was to acquire a grant to continue my work, I was unsuccessful. Today I am announcing a fundraiser of raising $12,000 USD by end of February. It may be a stretch to ask, but I hope you all have found sufficient value in my work to keep these projects going. If it is unsuccessful I will switch to a full-time job and the Divested projects will take a backseat. To those who have donated, I truly appreciate your support. Thank you - Tavi.

Via Stripe (bank card)¶

Via Liberapay¶

Donate (recurring)

Please be careful with Liberapay, the page and wording can be very unintuitive and potentially charge more then you wanted. Do not hesitate to reach out to them or me if it does.
The entirety of the time period is paid up-front in full, not broken up and will by default automatically renew after the time period passes in full.
Example: three months of $10 will immediately charge you $30, and then charge you $30 again in three months.
