The Irish express solidarity on a regular basis. The anticolonial struggle against the English has made them way closer to Palestinians and other colonized peoples than the rest of Europe.

Most member states have been in support of Israel. Most egregious being US and Germany, but France is ranking high. Supporting Israel is quite zionist in my opinion

Literally C/C++. Most used out there. Now if you want to do everything with it, you're in for a long ride. You can do everything on every platform with C. But learning the language is the easy part. The hard part is learning good coding pratices, which library to use and how. Only guides and practice will help you there

1. Turning into an executable is compiling as far as C goes. For Python, there probably is something somewhere to wrap a script into a .exe.

2. For the UI: what matters is the data you generate, not the fluff around it. As the other commenter said, start with a CLI program. You can easily nest several levels of menus if that's your thing. This allows you to have user input. Then for outputs you can do it to a .txt or .md file. Use simple text-based formats. Then once you've got that down you could build a GUI? But tbh I have never built a GUI and I've been programming for 10 years at this point so I can't help you out. There are simple cross-platform libraries you can use out there

Never in a million years would Switzerland condemn Israel. The state loves Israel. Maybe a strongly worder "please don't kill children in hospitals" was said, but no measures whatsoever were taken

A balance definitely needs to be struck and I'm hopeful that I am on the right side of it. Thank you for your support, it means a lot

I'm trying to lay a plan in my head where some software parts of the project could be made as graduate projects. If I can get key teachers in on it they could really help out. I'll draft a plan in my head and try to gather people who showed interest here for a meeting once a better-crafted top-level view is set

Got you. It is a shame that this part of crypto is not more widely publicized, as it is its most interesting use in my eyes.

Still think it can't be the only solution if we want wider reach. To avoid taxes and legal structures, I want to study whether we can interface with projects' available donation options and automatically split a user donation into several. Skipping the "finding the donation option for each project" problem which can be tediously human-solved for a proof of concept, the issue would be whether the process could be easy for the user while not getting obliterated by transaction fees.

There is no need to develop a crypto side since I'm sure a way to interface with Kivach could be found if the other fiat currency problems are solved beforehand.

Thank you for your input, it means a lot.

It is crucial indeed. That makes the project more of a central donation platform removed from the dev world, but it is simpler as such

Ideally you would let picky users override every setting and provide fair enough defaults. That includes library donation cascading etc. At the end of the day it seems the core part of the project should be providing fair enough defaults

SPI is great, didn't know about it. Sadly, it would need more projects in it to be a core pillar of FOSS funding. They are clearly aiming to build something stable and that's good for them. But I feel like their application process is a little too long for simply distributing funds around.
