      “Most importantly, this helps to change the open source narrative: you shouldn't feel like you need to work for free, especially if companies are actually making money off of your work.”, I swear I didn’t have a crystal ball for my RailsConf keynote 🙈https://char.gd/blog/2019/github-is-building-the-developer-platform-we-always-needed …

      “Why haven’t you fixed my issue yet!? I sent you $10! I demand you honor your obligations here. I paid you”, welcome to small-donation open source 2019 🙈

      I’m sure GitHub had all the right intentions here. And I’m sure this will work out well for a select few developers who will amass enough donations to ignore individual claims to their time. But I think it’s a grave risk to the culture of open source.

          If your initial reaction was just “oh, OF COURSE donations are good. End of story!”, then I have a keynote for you to chew on.https://m.signalvnoise.com/open-source-beyond-the-market/ …

          There is of course also the risk here of GitHub (read MS) trying to become the payment platform for OS devs. Github would be to devs what YouTube/patreon is to creators. Not a good development long term.

          You're kind to grant Microsoft the benefit of the doubt, even when it comes to intentions.

          Seen it small-scale turn consensus-driven-development into a bounty-driven-development... The result was "scrap the bounty system, it hurts everyone's interests". And I did think "it's a great idea!"... Little thought is harmful indeed.
