That’s a great idea! Offering users a choice to allocate donations towards specific new features in KiCad could be an engaging way to support development and prioritize features that matter most to the community. It not only empowers users by giving them a say in the product’s evolution but also provides developers with valuable feedback on user preferences. This approach could potentially boost fundraising efforts and foster a stronger sense of community involvement.
I hope the KiCad team considers implementing this suggestion!
