Comment on How is Open Source developed paid?
tgxn@lemmy.tgxn.net 3 weeks agoLikewise, I run/host/contribute to several public projects and typically get $0 unless someone feels like throwing $20 my way. Happens very rarely, though. I feel like most FOSS projects started like this, where the devs are just trying to “scratch thier own itch”.

Had someone buy me a dinner once
Or maybe they just repurposed the gift card, I don’t know. But I enoyed the dinner all the same!

Lucly!! A free dinner is a free dinner, I wouldn’t complain 😁

When I was doing a lot of custom ROMs on xda I had some guy supply a new phone to me to further develop on - this happened twice. It’s nice when it happens but it’s not why I was building ROMs

Note to self: Start making ROMs 🤗
