What, no cutout letters from magazine and newspapers? Clearly an Amateur.

I guess the postage was more expensive than the donation.
I mean, a letter to the USA surprisingly would only cost me 1,10 Euro. So this is less than the donated sum, but it's still a bit weird to only send 5 Euro with that.
A donation is a donation. I donate a couple bucks a month to Wikipedia, and they kiss the earth I step on. XDDD
I mean, people are free to donate as they like, I am just pointing out that more than 1/6 of the donation goes to the post service.
Yes, I get it. It’s the same reason why I’m paying for the VAT of my Wikipedia donation. If they have to discount the VAT from my meager contribution, those poor lads will be left with pennies… :P
The fact that signal does not accept cryptocurrency donations in their own Mobile coin is crazy.
Especially, they also don't accept Monero which they copied for their own pump and dump crypto, acknowledging it's the superior currency out there that fits their mission perfectly.

And on the mobile app the donation nag screen only accepts standard payments, not crypto payments.
