Donationware: you must donate to use it. Not like regular optional donates.

    You can literally donate 1ct. I have no idea how people can complain when developers want money for their work.

    The “Linux community” is 80% users that dont contribute, 10% “powerusers” that still dont contribute, 5% people that help with nondevelopment work (bug reporting, community support, etc.) and 5% actual developers.

    (Completely rough estimation)

      I have no problem with “pay what you can”. I just hate “you must donate X amount to use this software”. If I need to donate, then it is not a donate. It is payment.
