  • Please explain and answer the concerns as voiced by the community ; without more detail man can think your are a troll, a bot, or someone generated this answer using GentAI tools.

    Your answer is not accurate as it does not bring useful details to the community which have legitimate concerns.

    In addition the mentioned GitHub repository in a first sight does not contain mandatory files like CONTRIBUTING or SECURITY which does not help user be confident and have less concerns. Moreover, as the reproducibility of builds is not easy to prove event for FLOSS projects, you cannot rely on that point about open source approach. It does not seem that you are using either Dependabot, Renovate or Snyk to ensure the security of the software.

    You should really bring details and make the community less worried and more confident instead of bringing that type of answers.

    Next ones of that type might be removed ; the community is not dedicated to open source washing.









  • Quite strange, I have my last publications posted here downvoted without any comment, and I don’t know why. This is kind of unfair because FMPOV it is just hyperlinks maybe interesting or useful, at least for me and other people I know. But it’s the life, it’s social networks, it’s people and I don’t care that much ✌️ Please, leave comments instead ✌️

  • Very interesting topic in fact, I am not sure a unique and perfect solution exists.

    In fact, it depends to how much you earn, how matter does for you the project, how big it is, etc. It is a question of feelings after all.

    For example you may want to donate $20 one time to a useful tool you use, but for an app you enjoy using which match your own values you may want to send each year $50. But for some people it is complicated to give money, they need to satisfy their own needs before and people don’t have all the same incomes.

    FMPOV, if the project is “just a tool” it can be a $20 one shot. If I use the software daily, it can be $50 per year. Maybe more if I feel it will help.

    About the transaction medium, it depends. Projects can use Liberapay, others PayPal or Open Collective, or also in-app purchases. I don’t use cryptocurrencies because of the transactions fees.

    Hope it helps!
