You can get more information about what happened with the grant here, and how the PSF is standing up for the community despite the cost: https://www.theregister.com/2025/10/27/python_foundation_abandons_15m_nsf/
You can donate using one of the methods here — https://www.python.org/psf/donations/ — or if the methods listed there don't work for you (in particular, if PayPal is a problem and you're not donating enough for a wire transfer) https://github.com/sponsors/psf is also an option.

Send a screenshot of your receipt via Signal to glyph.99, or here in a reply. We'll match in 6 days, when we'll post our own receipts. It's a bit easier for me if you include personal details in the screenshot so I can avoid double-counting. I won't share anything except with the other matchers.

My original thread is here: https://mastodon.social/@glyph/115453574272465088 but this is a cleaned-up and much shorter version for easier sharing with relevant details closer together.

Have you been considering donating, but worried that we might be running out of space? Worry not! A new challenger appears! @Yhg1s has committed ANOTHER $5000 match, raising our total matching funds to $17,000, which (modulo a few additional receipts I need to process) means we are down to 43%.

5 days remain on this matching campaign, but sooner is better, $1.5MM is a lot to replace!

I seem to have really underestimated both the enthusiasm for the PSF's plight and my own popularity here

next time I do this I'm definitely going to come up with an accounting system that is not a manual linda-style tuplespace in a folder full of .png files

Now that the remaining PNG files have been manually OCR'd, the total stands as follows:
We've raised $9238.74 which is 54.3% of our $17000 total. Once again within 24h of a contributor joining the match we are over half full, but we all stand ready to be maxed out so please keep those donations coming!

Update for 2025-11-2: we are currently at $12047.97; 70.9% of the way through our $17000 matching fund. Max us out, folks. Keep it coming. The match will be computed on 11/4 AOE, so you still have a little time, but not THAT much!.
(I should note: if you've already given, please just share, don't give more to break your budget. This is a marathon and not a sprint, nobody should be skipping meals to fund open source security infrastructure.)

Since engagement on Mastodon seems to be slowing down a bit (no shade; there's been a big response, but our networks here are only so big) I tried going over to the Dark Side, to see if there's anyone I could reach there which I can't reach here. If you could boost it over there perhaps the malign spirit that animates its algorithm would be inclined to treat it more enthusiastically https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7390836171733585920/

Update 2025-11-03: thanks to the PSF's boost, we have now received $14622.43; 86.0% of our total match of $17000 . I am hopeful that we can close that 14% gap by tomorrow!

With only a few hours left to go, WE HAVE CROSSED THE FINISH LINE, and fully matched all $17,000! Here is a screenshot of my own match (as I said at the beginning, I was going to give $5000 regardless and $5000 to match, so this is the full $10k).

ANNUNCIO!
Oggi ricomincia KenoMATTINA, il mio streaming mattutino.
Lo trovate su Owncast, su TELE.KENOBIT.IT, oppure su Twitch (che prestissimo mollerò definitivamente).
Oggi parlerò proprio di come Twitch sia in evidente declino. Ci vediamo dalle 8:30!

Meno polemiche regà. La presidento de l'antimafia Colosimo ha solo na grande passione pe la storia. È pe quello che se fà fotografà a fianco a statue der Duce o a personaggi storici tipo er terrorista nero Ciavardini protagonista daa stragge de Bolognia

Avete frainteso la Santanché
Dicie giustamente che "l'inconfondibbile stile itagliano vince ancora" riferendosi a n'articolo in cui na famija inglese che ha provato a trasferirsi qua e poi ha scappata via dopo 6 mesi
Intende dì che noi e le nostre tradizzioni sò resistenti a l'invasione de stragnieri co le loro idee demmerda tipo gniente religgione a squola (ma levateve!!!) o incapacità de apprezzà i rapporti umani che se istaurano in coda a gli sportelli comunali ♥️
