- macintux 3y agoI pay for email, and blog hosting, and a fair few software subscriptions because: - I want companies to be able to pay their employees and continue offering the service I enjoy - I want to not feel like a burden if/when I do need support - I want to not be the product sold to advertisers I have an iPhone app that I depend on for one of my hobbies, but because they never successfully monetized it, it’s abandonware, and I have to just hope that Apple never breaks it with an OS upgrade.
- bjhess 3y agoHear, hear! We greatly dislike the ad model and greatly dislike the data-mining model. Let's normalize paying for a thing that you enjoy, as well as companies going for self-sustaining rather than giant exits. And if you have the technical know-how and time budget, by all means set up your own OSS blog on a server and enjoy!
