+10 ways to give thanks to open source and free software maintainers
+====== 
+How to express your gratitude.
+![](https://opensource.com/users/moshez)
+
+Every day, I use high-quality software that is developed and maintained by people who do not ask for payment, who respect my freedoms, and who are generous with their time and energy.
+
+In this season of giving thanks, I encourage those of you who also use and appreciate the work of open source and free software maintainers to express your gratitude. Here are ten ways to do that:
+
+### Easy to do
+
+  1. Send an e-mail thanking the developers. Be specific—tell them what you are using their software for and how it has benefited you.
+  2. Use your favorite social media platform to spread the word.
+  3. Write a blog post about your favorite software.
+
+
+
+### Give money
+
+  4. If your favorite open source projects accept donations, send money.
+  5. If you are employed by a company that uses open source software, see if you can convince management to sponsor some of the projects.
+  6. Offer to match donations up to a set amount. It is amazing what social motivation can do!
+
+
+
+### Give time
+
+  7. Help review patches.
+  8. Help triage bugs.
+  9. Answer questions on IRC, mailing lists, or [Stack Overflow][1].
+
+
+
+**10. Bonus:** If you are like me, you have at some point said harsh words to other people in the open source community. Commit to do better: Communicate with kindness and openness. The best way to give thanks is to make the open source community a place where people feel comfortable communicating.
