A pesky donation reminder

Leo Wandersleb requested to merge donationDrive into master

With this MR the landing page loads as always but as soon as the user scrolls, the following reminder to support the project appears, replacing the content of the page:

The user won't get to see the landing page without setting the url parameter ?voteSupport= to something, which can be done with the three provided links.

The choice gets stored in localStorage to not bother the user again.

The url parameter was chosen to see votes in the server logs.

The text reads:

What protects your Bitcoins from Hackers?

Do you really own your Bitcoins or do you just trust that your product allows you to use them while owned by the custodian? Do you have a backup? Do "they" have a copy they didn't tell you about? Did anybody check the wallet for back doors and vulnerabilities? Could anybody check the wallet for those?

We examine wallets, free of charge, for new-coiners and whales alike, free of charge, trusting that people with the most to lose will voluntarily support our ongoing efforts.

In May 2021, we received one generous donation of 1.7BTC, which constitutes almost 90% of all the support we’ve ever received over the past 2.5 years of operation. Contributions have been scarce since then so we’re now at the point where we have to decide whether or not the project should continue.

Will you help to keep WalletScrutiny alive?

Yes, I will help WalletScrutiny today with a donation or content contribution!

Yes, I will help but not today.

No, the project just isn’t that important to me.
