Same! Been using them a while, great app.
I didn't think they took donations?
uBlock Origin doesn’t accept donations.
Pretty much all foss projects have donations with the exception of ublock origin
And Scribus +___+ (And Open Camera.)

From their website
Contribute > Other > Help pay for expenses
Thank you, I couldn't find it before
They strictly use the donations to cover their infrastructure cost (website, docs, metadata API fees). They don't use donations to fund development, to avoid becoming for-profit at all cost.
And since they are currently sitting at ~$20k that they have yet to spend, they aren't pushing the donation options at all.
What they much rather need is actual contributors, that can help with development.
Gotcha, I think that's where I was getting confused
