@marcan@treehouse.systems @Di4na of course, but hiring people is one of the most costly expenses we can have, it is not realistic for the far majority of people.
@falktx@marcan so what you are saying is that it is not realistic for developers to be paid and/or that most of this software provide less value than the cost of maintaining it.
So the maintainers should keep sacrificing their time for others because... Well we are really glad they are doing it and not us?
@Di4na I am not saying anything like that, my previous point was only that most people do not have the power or means to hire others, so saying such option is available means very little.
@falktx @Di4na a bit late to the party here, but i typically like to mention louigi's in-depth piece on this: https://louigiverona.com/?page=projects&s=writings&t=philosophy&a=philosophy_freedoms
