I wonder if they intentionally left out FAECE5? A brownish color

You could give elementary OS (https://elementary.io/) a try. Got a nice looking GUI but i'm not too sure how mature it is.

I used a linux desktop but needed something a mobile without a hefty price tag. Got a HP Chromebook 13 and with crouton and it's brilliant. Beautiful hardware at a reasonable price. I just wish there was a crouton app launcher but its good enough anyway

Its better than nothing as a supplement to the funding some OSS software already gets. It would be nice for the internet community to be able to fund the internet infrastructure without having to have any idea about all the projects that make it possible. I'm not saying it will work as a sole source of funding but may of these projects are desperately underfunded and could do with some revenue. I think may users would be happy to donate to the projects that make the internet possible.

I would love to see something like this for the actual software that runs the web. Things like OpenSSL, PGP, FessBSD and the other critical software that makes it all possible but almost all users will never visit there webpages. There would need to be some other way to allocate the funds, maybe by checking some form of header metadata to see what software websites are built on.
