People give away their work with a price tag of $0. So people/companies pay $0. Are you surprised? Do you normally pay more than the asking price for things you buy? If you want people/companies to pay $ then you need to put that in the license and sue companies that don’t do it. Or get a company to do it on your behalf in return for a %
- F6F6FA 5y agoNot surprised. Sometimes give a tip for good service. If you want people/companies to pay $ then you are not working on OSS.
- mbrodersen 5y agoI don't think you understand OSS. OSS is about Open Source not about working for free. I love OSS. It's great. But stop complaining when the world gives you exactly what you ask for. If you want to be paid $ to do OSS then put that in your OSS licence and sue people who don't pay. If you don't then grow up, accept that the world will treat your work as having $0 value and move on.
