Show HN: ProofOfDonation, replace CAPTCHAs with charity donations
Description and use
ProofOfDonation replaces CAPTCHAs with charity donations, letting users prove activity by contributing to nonprofits instead of typing codes. To adopt, embed the script in your login form and configure a payment gateway; after verifying the license and repo activity, it can be used in prototypes. In production it is considered medium‑ready: manual dependency checks and regular maintenance are needed, but it works well for internal workflows.
Use in a workflow

Limitations and review notes
