You have to put the effort in to something that you expect people to actually pay for. I’m not gonna lie, I’m sure I’m not the only one who gave a giggle at $27. I would use this if it were free and so would many others. Tons of people dedicate months or years to FOSS projects and tons of people dedicate months or years to achieve something great, and, as you say, helpful, without ever getting so much as a thank you. It doesn’t stop them. That’s what makes them truly great people. I don’t see that you’re looking at your customer or purpose with this statement. It seems you’re far more concerned with your bottom line at the moment...a clickbaity headline like you chose kinda puffs your ego regarding the project out of proportion, and the fact that the follow up video to that link contains such little actual information about the product is strange at best. We developers are not usually ourselves the best designers or marketers - getting on HN can be a really big deal for your success - but I see a lot of confused people here. Perhaps look at someone involved in marketing. Just saying. Mad respect for all you’ve contributed to the technology sphere.
