@thisismissem - good point. what code have you been working on that goes into products I may be using so that I know where to direct my contributions to?

I appreciate "product and license" thinking, where code is packed and productivized so that consumers can buy. If I see a business model where the payment can be distributed amonst thousands of software/service consumers, I am much more eager to chime in. Maybe others, too.

Remembering something @Karlitschek said about 20 years ago, that sustaining end-user open-source applications is tricky, especially the last 80% work to make it a smooth system (and expanse the user universe beyond devs to anyone).... I like the business models of Wordpress with WooCommerce/Akismet or KirbyCMS where there is a clear flow of money for service.

I want #productize #fediverse, not #enshittification #socialmedia

(Thinking about hosters who could also charge for services and buy your code such as @fedihost @digitalcourage @PaulaToThePeople )
