Do I get a special avatar, emoji, flair, or something unique to each tip?

You get the satisfaction of supporting someone whose work you enjoy

[-] sharkfucker420@lemmy.ml 47 points 10 months ago

You materially support the devs for their labor. There is no greater honor

I didn't expect a socialist answer

Monetarily supporting things you like is very literally capitalist

[-] Zorque@lemmy.world -4 points 10 months ago

Capitalism is about reaping reward from financial dealings, not just tossing money at things because you like them, and seeking nothing in return.

OPs take is dumb, but yours isn't much better.

I'll let you do some research before I even jump back into this 🙄 this isn't even remotely correct. It's a side effect, and a common mindset in capitalistic systems, but absolutely not the core of it.

"Just trust me bro"

It's literally in the name. Capitalism is about acquiring capital. It's about using that capital for your own gain.

It's not just any system where money happens to exist.

Telling you that you need to do more research is like the exact opposite of "trust me bro." I didn't give you anything because I know you wouldn't trust it, you need to actually figure it out on your own.

Not everyone is capable and that's OK, you don't have to feel bad about it 🤷‍♂️

Hello stranger I just wanted to let you know that I’m sorry that you got downvoted so much while being right lol

There is still much work to do :-)

You give them money

And they receive it

Someone comes by and sets off fireworks in your driveway.

All I got were a sparkler & a black snake which left a stain on my concrete.

You pay 19.99 👍

I tried to screenshot it for you but I was too slow. You get a little green toast that says thanks. I just hope it mostly goes to the dev. I'd rather give through Apple Cash or Ko-fi if half of what I donated just went to Apple or someone.

I declare this reply to be my favorite

The bridge crew all fall out of their seats, some consoles explode and one ensign will have to go to sick bay with burns on their- oh. Oooh, nevermind.
