The problem that we all believe in bright future. I do donate to some indie developers/opensource projects with money, time, support, help, ideas, even few patches.
For me it's something I believe is future too. We live in technology era and exchange of knowledge and cooperation, work with community only boosts progress — open source is the future. Sooner or later.
But on other hand I see how a lot of areas got corrupted (art, media, politics) and i feel like as this is tech era, some companies try to corupt it. After all facebook, google and apple were good at first, also fighting against "big brother". But look where they are today. And i see new companies pop up and they use more and more communities as tool and not cooperate with them. Some of them use opensource and even Linux to sell and promote themselves. Even MS today promotes Linux for Azure. And it really hursts me personally when we fall for those blindly. And I told 1000 times that I would be happy if Jolla prove me wrong, but currently I do not see any direction in cooperation with community, even communication and I do not see a lot of open sourcing, though I do see a lot of talk in PR about it and promises that never fullfilled with another excuse or silence. And it keeps repeating itself. i say something that looks like duck and quacks like duck is a duck!
