Fuck that noise. I don't care if he's already s multi millionaire, he can charge whatever he wants, and we can choose to pay it or not. The man is running a business model here. He's not done weekend warrior FOSS hacker. He deserves to be paid for his efforts.
People can spend money on both, you know. There's no hard rule that they have to be mutually exclusive.
Listen mate. The issue here isn't that people are saying that devs are starving. It's that people here are some how associating someone who is (ostensibly)comfortable in life with the Bourgeois. You are not a class traitor for working your ass off on a product that many of your fellow Proletariats enjoy. Quite the opposite in fact. The real Bourgeois are the people who own the very server farms the app lives on. The real Bourgeois are the owners of the land the server farms live on. They are the people who are so rich you forget they exist.
