Was curious about the foundation I donate to. Turns out about 80% of the donations go to pay the executive director…

    Yeah, Wikimedia is disappointing… The CEO makes over $500k and there are half a dozen other people who each make over $300k. I am seriously reconsidering my monthly donation to them. I love Wikipedia with all my heart, but it looks like my money would go further if I donated to the Internet Archive instead.

      Wikimedia is a big organization though, right? $500k doesn’t seem too outrageous considering the scope.

      Interestingly, it was worse the year before.
