  • Yeah, really don’t get this one. As an example, I’ve been supporting the guy who writes most of the software I use via Github sponsors for a while, now. It’s nice to get access to additional support chat rooms and perks and stuff, but just the feeling alone is satisfying enough.

    I genuinely recommend those with gainful employment to consider supporting the people who make the software and media you like (E.g. Patreon).

    Issue reports and the likes are nice, but they’re really not a substitute for cash (in my opinion).

    I’m annoyed to see you getting down voted - I had a similar issue years ago with my work MacBook (couldn’t run a custom WM because any modification to the Finder was blocked without putting the machine into “unsafe” mode).

    I love OSS, but without a verifiable way to distribute it large swaths of the workforce won’t be able to use it.

    F-Droid is great, but sadly it isn’t enough.
