Ten years ago today I've released version 0.1 of #Conversations_im on the Google Play Store as a paid app.
I believe that I have contributed significantly to normalizing the pay-for-the-binary business model for open source apps.
Ten years ago Conversations was one of the first apps to do this and definitely raised some eyebrows. Nowadays it feels like a pretty common thing.
