Thanks for the offer!
I afraid that sending a check to me specifically is not a good idea,
especially from a person based in USA.

I know little about depositing received checks, so I had to search
through my bank website in China (I have no access to my non-Chinese
bank branches here). The result is disappointing. They charge close to
200USD [1] for collecting checks.

As you can see, there is little point sending me checks.

Probably, USA->China is a bit extreme case, but, as I can see, bank fees
are not uncommon for checks. Thus, small donations are likely impossible
via check. Now, I feel like even the available free donation options are
not really suitable in practice for reasons unrelated to free software.

Best,
Ihor
