Yea, Galx/Zealy are waste almost always, you are better off putting this effort elsewhere, yes there might be few projects giving reward to these two but if you put the same effort elsewhere you can get better reward.
On this note, I think Linea farmed the community way too much with their quests, let's see if they do retrodrop and if it's going to be worthwhile for the effort and money involved.
They have $TIME token confirmed and donating could potentially make you eligible for $TIME airdrop. $1 is small donation, wouldn't put a dent in your wallet while earning potential is huge.

It's speculation, you may or may not get anything for this donation. In past, several projects rewarded to Gitcoin donors, although this is not Gitcoin but there is possibility that you could be rewarded for your donation, it's not same as buying the token at all.
