If you had/have enough disposable income, what would drive you to donate to opensource software? (programming.dev)

Scenario: you're using opensource software and you aren't donating yet, however you have enough money left over every month to do so. Something(s) is holding you back from donating. Think about what that is and what would have to change for you to change that.

Transparency. I dont donate to projects that dont regularily (monthly/quarterly) publish the amount of money they receive through donations and their costs.

An example of how to do this well here https://tchncs.de/en/donate

Doesnt need to be that fancy of course, can just be a table with numbers.
