Hey everyone, I just wanted to thank you for the lively conversation and thought-provoking insights.
We don't have to agree on every point (or at all), but I've decided to synthesize a lot of thoughts and ideas from these conversations into a blog post: https://deadsuperhero.com/2024/03/economic-musings-on-federated-networks/
If your are going to act so entitled just because the devs get 2k euro a month (which is under the average income in france and germany) you should just go back to reddit
Just wow that is how they start it
They're not wrong. On multiple occasions the devs have acted like assholes, this one as well. Especially the part where they initially didn't think GDPR would apply because they aren't a commercial entity (paraphrasing) is comically depressing.
Having said that, I won't be cancelling my donations anytime soon. Assholes though they might be, I still want to pay back to the Lemmy community, and I can't think of a better way than this.
