People who make free prefabs I’m using that I need to donate to if they have a donation channel or something

I think I should donate more to people who create free prefabs that I’m using.

However I can’t do it all at once.

I only write down free tools and content that I am actively consuming. It does not list useful tools that I don't use (e.g. GoGo Loco).
I strongly encourage you to write your own list of free content creators to support, based on what you have installed and what you find entertaining (free games, YouTube content, etc.).

Some free tool creators don’t accept donations but have a store. If you only need the free tool, get something from their store.

Items marked ”Supports me” means I cannot donate to them unless they have supporter-only products I want. We can’t donate to each other; that doesn’t make sense for tax purposes.
