    Considering they’ve pledged ongoing support, you may see that come true.

      A monthly commitment isn’t an annual commitment. I hope it’s like, “here’s 125k, and also 125k every year for the next decade.” But if it were, they’d say so.

          I think they’re saying they would like to see it be an annual commitment, as in every year. Not defending their shitty gatekeeping on donations to developers.

              Yeah, feels like they do a lot of things very poorly 🤷
