There’s always someone out there who will say that about anything. And there are always questionable people who would take advantage of others charity. Don’t let that stop you from trying to spread good.
Being able to run a site without donations for years without any incoming donations is a great thing, but years isn’t really that long, and what would happen when that money ran out? There would be a last minute funding push for a company with a proven record of financial malpractice, who would want to donate to it then?
You’re right that the editors don’t get money, but they do get a reputable unbiased platform that they can share their knowledge on, and for many people that’s more than enough. (Source: Wikipedia, Reddit, Lemmy)

Yeah but Elon Musk hates them so they get my money.
Unfortunately, you’d still be donating to rich people. I’ve elaborated in another comment: https://europe.pub/post/1056976/1290065

It’s sad but the actual people spreading the good don’t see a penny. I’ve elaborated in another comment: https://europe.pub/post/1056976/1290065

They fund interesting projects anyways. It’s not like all donations go into managers pockets. But yes it is something to keep in mind for sure.
