Sorry for my stupid question... Who are the Fantastic Four?
I understand you and totally agree with you. Even if they don't say it directly, the world is mostly made up of ungrateful freeloaders who stop their hand when it's free, but as soon as money becomes an issue, they get their ass kicked. Users benefit from good, honest work for free for years, but if you then want some compensation for your valuable time, you are reduced to a dog who only cares about money. Suddenly you are a rip-off, even though a lot of life energy, free time and money have been invested. You are then portrayed as someone who would rather take care of his family than the poor users who feel betrayed.
The world is unfortunately ungrateful and full of idiots... They are doing a great job and thank you for all the years you have invested in your tools. But I think it's difficult to charge a monthly subscription fee for apps that are free. Isn't this a violation of the license terms of the original developers. Surely you have to contribute financially to them?
I'm not sure whether, after all these years of work, they are happy with continuing the project financed by donations. I would also rather donate an amount than pay every month for apps that are actually free. You can give an ultimatum. As soon as you have received amount xx as a donation, you will continue the project. If not, then it will no longer be financially manageable for them. Since I use their apps a lot, I would definitely donate, if only for my own benefit, so that I continue to have up-to-date tools.
But if there are actually not enough donations coming in, then the common greedy people don't deserve their software suite. The positive side effect is that your children, wife or dogs will be happy that they have more time again and will no longer have to constantly be bothered by dissatisfied users.
cheers

After re-reading, I would like to apologize for offending your users. But I'll leave the text there... Maybe some people will feel addressed and think about it a bit. Especially about this free of charge mentality.
