Thats the point. People should realize that just because someone is doing some software as a hobby doesn’t mean he doesn’t need to earn money. YOU PEOPLE, IF YOU USE GREAT SOFTWARE PAY FOR IT PLEASE. Don’t let great FOSS software die out, and donate. Just give those 20$, its not much for you (some shitty chineese gadgets), and its so much for devs if everyone do that. Wherever you want to buy some chineese gadget, donate it to actually great software instead of chineese scammer please.

to be fair, most of those Chinese scammers probably need the money more. Most of them are in effect slaves and convincing westerners to give them money allows their handlers not to kill them. www.youtube.com/watch?v=pLPpl2ISKTg
