The first time I looked into this, I thought it was fake, but turns out I was checking the wrong year.

2023: $250–$499
2022: $1,000–$4,999
2021: $1,000–$4,999
2020: $250–$499
2019: $1,000–$4,999
2018: $1,000–$4,999

I appreciate them donating at all, but that's about the price of one Macbook per year - my girlfriend's most recent Macbook was $5,500

Edit: It looks like these donations may come from Apple matching donations (pdf warning)

Unrelated to this post at all, I'm a bit out of the loop on this, is there something wrong with PDFs? Just wondering what the PDF warning is about, this just being the first I've ever seen that.

Some browsers (mobile/etc) automatically download PDFs, and PDFs have had security vulnerabilities/exploits in the past

Afaik, a pdf is safe if you don't execute js
