> the creator of Webpack, "Sokra," made $44,164 off of Webpack development in 2017 While I certainly welcome this new trend I wouldn't exactly call sub-45k "hefty". That's far below what the author could presumably make working for one of the big shops, and doesn't exactly leave much to "divert" if the author has any plans to pay rent, buy food, etc. As stated it's a great and promising trend, but I wouldn't be too hasty in calling for the author to start redistributing a fairly minimal income. That's barely enough for one person, let alone "staff".
