I was looking at Graphite Editor project and how the hell is 24k stars on GitHub translate to 600$ per month?

This is not the first open source project that I see with this problem.

Why the hell is no one supporting open source developers?

    So your question is “why do people spend more money on sexual gratification than on being fair?”

    I don’t even know where to start with that one, but the question suggests extreme naivety.

        Yeah probably. Someone just responded to me with some incel bullshit and I doubt they’re alone.

      I think it has more to do with how open source developers work considerably harder than onlyfans whores yet get paid significantly less, if they make any money at all.

        Ah so we’ve come out and said the incel shit out loud. I appreciate the candor, even if it is absolutely disgusting.

                Maybe you can explain why sex workers are subhuman? How about that? Let’s see how many friends you win from expanding on this.

                  It’s obvious that you’ve already decided that you “know” what the person you’re arguing with means and think, and then you’re attacking that instead of recognising that you’ve misunderstood them.

                    It’s obvious you also want to have the ability to call women whores and then pretend you meant nothing by it.

                  When did I say they are subhuman? If you can’t read then it’s understandable why you’re confused.

                    Ah okay I’ve totally misunderstood. Explain to us how a “whore” is someone you value and respect. I look forward to this.
