Another thought regarding #OpenSource software. There is a pervasive mentality that such software cannot be associated with money. It appears hard to reconcile paying for something that is free.
This mentality must change. We must foster and support the idea that great software is costly to develop. How can we ensure that more people financially contribute to OSS if it supports them?
I believe that we should highlight those paying and supporting OSS. 1/x
