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)

What does one get with a MacBook that costs $5,500? Seems crazy expensive

A $2000 laptop with an Apple logo on it.

An Apple sticker from some person on Etsy sold for €10 sounds like a good deal now.
