40,000$ per month is way more than anyone will ever need. For sure I would stop donating, from the top of my 1,400€ per month.
I agree that's quite a lot of money. I'm not sure what if any the cap should be. I guess my attitude is that if they are bringing in so much money, and everyone working there is getting a fair cut... then power to them? I don't donate either, though I've been using Signal since before it was called that. I remember when they first introduced calling as a companion app called Red Phone.
I'll agree it's high, but then you have absolutely no idea what they do or have to put up with. Non profits should put the money they make above and beyond their expenses back into their employees, at all levels, not just the top. If you can't beat em, join em!
My point is merely that they don't need my money, nor anyone else's. I am not familiar with the way 501c3 nonprofits work in the US.
Agreed!
