I don't like the idea of recurring payments especially for something I'm not actively using because then I have to remember to shut it off at some point.

Maybe you decide $10/mo is such a small number (the price of two coffees in any country where I’ve lived over the past 15 years) that you’re happy to keep on donating at the end of one year?

What, like I'm going to remember a year in advance to look into this? I'm willing to donate a little to things on rare occasions but I don't think I would do it this way because I don't want an accumulation of little monthly payments I have stopped thinking about draining my finances.
