You mean if someone isn't getting enough money to cover FOSS development he shouldn't abandon it? Or something else? It's hard to understand what you mean, maybe give a specific example?
Discussion
I say the developer or the development team must be in direct and open contact with the community to discuss about the possible future developments whether in positive or negative way (open source ecosystem). This relation between two bodies will define the app's/software's timeline. If someone pressures the community in an obscure way about the financial health it might cause a very stromg backlash ruining everyrhing.
Those threats keep coming. "The developer must" ... "backlash".
i'm concerned. What's the "backlash". In the absence of any more specific elaboration one would have to assume the worst. Like gangs of goons being deployed to the developer's premises.
It doesn't say explicitly who/what this is about but I assume nostr:npub1xtscya34g58tk0z605fvr788k263gsu6cy9x0mhnm87echrgufzsevkk5s and Damus and I just hope that nostr:npub1xtscya34g58tk0z605fvr788k263gsu6cy9x0mhnm87echrgufzsevkk5s has adequate security at his premises.
Do we need to report nostr:npub1edd9lp84z8jusqujzrecsunja2xcqmjl0adjdj6y8uakaj932ejqar8nu4 to the authorities at this point.
Im just surprised this upset so many people. I guess I could have just not said anything and just let everyone know at the point i had no money left? I think that would have been worse.
I hope it's all benign. Hafta think of Atlas Shrugged.
And no I’m not good at “PR” or communication, I am just being open and honest about what I’m thinking at any given time. If people don’t like that then so be it.
