NOTE: the focus is this time on a Windows installer, so it is a bit off-topic.

Let's list crowdfunding campaigns relevant to Linux ...

Unsure how this is relevant to Linux:

You appear to be looking for crowd funding to port it to Windows.

Yeah I edited my post to reflect this fact.
I've posted about Tupí before in this thread.

The Krita team is also hoping to fund an OSX port (although that stretch goal will not likely be met). With these cross-platform apps, the funding targets are kind of enmeshed.
To quote a Krita kickstarter update:

It's also likely 2.9 will have portable installers for Windows and Linux and the experimental app bundle for OSX. That is, the work on OSX has made it possible to create selfcontained packages for Windows and Linux that do not need post-install setup things to run anymore.

So working on the OSX port has benefited Linux as well.

In the end you'll still be funding the development of a Linux animation application, if you participate in the Tupí campaign.
