What's the status on Wikipedia donations?

Next time you think about donating to a foundation, look at their CEO‘s salary, then think again.

Sorry, what is the actual thinking here? Anyone who earns more than you shouldn’t exist?

Without a highly paid CEO, wikipedia wouldn’t exist.

Without donations, wikipedia wouldn’t exist.

Therefore, if you want wikipedia to exist, you should donate.

My argument is that nobody needs 500k to do their job right and there is no justification for paying a manager five to ten times as much as an engineer, especially not on donation money.

I‘d rather give to a smaller project where the money actually ends up with the people who do most of the work.

Then go do that and stop loudly aligning with fascist goals of tearing down the last good part of the internet, weirdo
