Moves like this are a bit… strange? It was on github. There are 1.8k forks, with intact LGPL. What is happening here? Is their dev work worth 99$/year ? Not saying people don’t deserve to get paid for their work. I’m just not seeing the business case for this.
@HKayn This may sound cold hearted and I swear I’m not:
There is no obligation for the world in general to pay someone for open source software. (right now)
Everyone should think long hard about writing software and donating time and effort because of this.
I don’t like this state of things, I would prefer some kind of “general usefulness” tax financed grant thing.
