--   Tridactyl funding 👀: [donate via GitHub sponsors here](https://github.com/users/bovine3dom/sponsorship). All GitHub and Patreon donors get a nice little newsletter once every few months; people who donate at least 10USD a month get a "tips & tricks" newsletter roughly once a month ([see an example here](https://github.com/tridactyl/tridactyl/blob/master/doc/newsletters/tips-and-tricks/1-hint-css-selectors.md)). You can also donate via [PayPal](https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=7JQHV4N2YZCTY), but they charge fairly high fees and you won't get any newsletters. Donations currently go towards ensuring that bovine3dom can afford to work one day a week on Tridactyl. Previously the donations have funded an in-person developer retreat.
+-   🦌🦌🛷 🎅🎁 Tridactyl funding 👀: [donate via GitHub sponsors here](https://github.com/users/bovine3dom/sponsorship). Please consider starting a recurring donation as your Christmas present to me this year if you've found Tridactyl useful :) With inflation and churn, I (bovine3dom) am getting about 30% less than I was last year, so any help would be greatly appreciated! ☃️

+-   All GitHub and Patreon donors get a nice little newsletter every now and then; for people who donate at least 10USD a month I briefly did a "tips & tricks" newsletter roughly once a month ([see an example here](https://github.com/tridactyl/tridactyl/blob/master/doc/newsletters/tips-and-tricks/1-hint-css-selectors.md)) but now I'm open to other ideas for saying thanks. You can also donate via [PayPal](https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=7JQHV4N2YZCTY), but they charge fairly high fees and you won't get any newsletters. Donations currently aim to ensure that bovine3dom can work one day a week on Tridactyl at minimum wage. Previously the donations have funded an in-person developer retreat.
