  • Same here. Donated not only to cover my installs, but also for everyone I recommended it to. I hope the f-droid version wont be affected, otherwise I have to uninstall the upcomming bloat- and spyware ridden versions manually from a bunch of devices smh.

    I mean I am fine with apps not being maintained and eventually break, but selling out and breaching trust like this is exactly how regular companies would treat me and why I chose FOSS in the first place.





  • Essentially it’s a giveaway/handout/distribution to people who fulfill some criteria. There was one coin that gave away significant amounts (>1k USD) to early users and since then it has become kinda popular. Because who would turn down something free?!

    Except its not free. For starters, you’d usually have to pay significant network fees to claim the airdrop, and second the money has to come from somewhere. It’s the same with government printing money and distributing some to the people, in the end we all pay for it with inflation. So yeah, pretty scammy overall.
