Laeserin on Nostr: What he said. ...

What he said.

quoting nevent1q…anjq

Software developers who don't care at all what users think are morons who shouldn't be software developers.

Imagine if a chef didn't give a hot fuck how his food tasted. What would be his purpose exactly?

Markets solve this issue. Unfortunately, FOSS often has a problem where funding doesn't come directly from users. There's usually a middleman that somehow influences development toward the opinions of those who control the fund rather than users.

Ideally, Nostr will eventually reach a point where development is funded by users so a proper marketplace for features and ideas can form.

I'm not giving to foundations anymore. I'm directly funding developers who value my opinions and needs as a user. If they don't offer an easy way to be paid and offered feedback, fuckem.
