Well you might call it exorbitant but that’s up for debate really. In my eyes it’s not exorbitant.
Especially given what a niche Lemmy is. So the dev might not even Break even on the costs.
‘in my eyes’
That is the entire crux of the argument. And thank God that the 80-85% of the devs don’t feel averse to the entire concept of purchasing power parity.
If you haven’t dabbled in activities/studies as to how one can reduce the value factor while relying on the volume to not only start making some profit BUT ALSO ensuring the ‘first mover’s advantage’, this will be a long drawn and possibly a futile discussion. I have said what was required, while having first hand experience of interacting with the devs who agreed, so that is it from my side. Ciao.
