  • Yeah, no. When you have more life experience, you’ll realize why it makes sense to make it as easy as possible to donate. The people at Blender understand, which is why they got my donation.

    There is literally no downside to supporting cryptocurrencies. But the snowball effect has taken hold and now Godot is going to lose money for it.

    Good job doing your part to fit in with the crowd at the expense of pragmatism.

    I’m gonna block you now because it’s clear you’re responding to justify your disdain for crypto and bangwagon mentality.


  • It’s easier. I just donated to blender because they support crypto. I don’t have to make an account. I don’t have to give out bank account info.

    On a philosophical note, cryptocurrencies can free us from the control of banks. That lack of centralization should be appealing to people in the free software community.

    I was going to donate to godot, but they don’t support it. And it’s not even about being limited to “the few I choose.” Supporting crypto at all encourages more people to, you know, use those coins.

    I didn’t even mention a specific coin. It’s sad that you all are bandwagoning and in the process costing the project money. It’s ridiculously easy to set up a wallet and have a link to donate, but it looks like the snowball effect has taken hold and now that’s one less option people have to support the project.


  • What the heck? There was nothing “passive aggressive” about it.

    If Godot accepted cryptocurrencies I use, then I would donate to them. It really is that simple. It doesn’t cost them anything to accept cryptocurrencies.

    I don’t know why you’re being passive aggressive, when the entire point of this thread is to encourage more ways to support development.

    I’m gonna ignore you now, because honestly I don’t have time for this kind of nonsense anymore. You’re doing your part to make sure Godot has less money.
