Thanks for taking care of this.

https://openwrt.org/inbox/donate2 does not show the donate button in
Firefox and Chromium for me.

We should update this text:

I would remove the "and companies".

We used this money also to finance the OpenWrt meeting in Hamburg last
year. I would change it to this:

All collected money minus the transaction fees and some maintenance fees
is controlled by Software Freedom Conservancy in the name of the OpenWrt
project and will be used to support the OpenWrt project (e.g. server
infrastructure, legal fees to manage the OpenWrt trademark, travel
support for meetings, ...).

I would remove this sentence.
