Gotta support the developers!

The developers of what? Is this a project to get Linux running on iPhones?

This is the tally of how much I had donated to the developers of mobile Linux distros and apps.

Ohhhh I get it now. Got any favorite devs/distros/apps to shoutout?

I also need my next phone to be a Linux Phone, so I'm into this strategy.
