Look, I can't help you if you don't even read the things you are posting. 🤷‍♂️

@Untold1707 As opposed to the hardware requirements of windows, who force you to buy a new computer for every new windows version just because?

@IllNess true, no need to fix bugs if you don't know about them.. how smart. So much time saved.

@IllNess but that one you can ignore whether it's paying or non-paying, so you are talking about a completely different case

@IllNess

Random non-paying user: "Hey guys, I found a bug in your app, maybe you want to have a look at this"

Maintainers: "Na-na-na-na-na not listening! We'll keep the bug there because you are not the boss!"

Yeah, that sounds like a very stupid strategy.

@taladar Emphasis on "entire system".

@foosel Saying that I demand maintainers to cater to my requests can be easily disproven by just looking at my words above where I say the exact opposite. Then who is doing their best to misunderstand and turn words around?

@tyler So why are you doing open source anyway, if not for the philosophy? You are completely undermining that by forcing your contributors to stick to proprietary walled gardens. Last time I checked there were hosting providers for both gitea and matrix.

@TrumpetX Sorry but your two proposed solutions are not available to me, and both would put me at the mercy of big American corporations. I'm not saying crypto is the only way, but all the other ways are either not available in 90% of the world, or not acceptable for anyone a bit privacy conscious. Out of the remaining options, crypto is by far the easiest to use. And no intermediaries necessary.

@breadsmasher Not OP, but for me, donating by cryptocurrency is about a million times easier than in any other way.

@onlinepersona soooo.. any non-obfuscated javascript is open-source according to you? That doesn't make much sense.
