    Support the projects that make LXLE Linux possible. 75% of the donations made to the LXLE is used as bounties for bug fixes, feature request and program creation for any project that may be important, vital, wanted or loved by those using the distribution.

    LXLE is primarily a 'managed' respin/derivative of Lubuntu. Since we essentially maintain and provide support for the distribution, leaving the heavy lifting to talented programmers, only 25% of the donations is used to continue the administrative costs of the operating system.

    A couple benefits is achieved by only managing/maintaining the distribution. First and foremost, no bias is shown toward any application because it is an 'in-house' app. Secondly this helps showcase what is available from Linux as a whole not specifically a particular distribution.

    We are excited about utilizing BountySource as the primary way to reward those involved in making an eclectic OS like LXLE possible. Rest assured the majority of your donation is being used to issue 'bounties' for improvements, bug fixes, new apps and straight donations to others.
