So building +25 sovereign tools for the bitcoin community brought me about 7000 sats in donations so far.

Nice to see so many, many people deeply caring about standalone software without a central party and value the work through V4V 😉

Yeah, I keep telling it, because some ppl in art, code, business in bitcoin see the exact same grifter mentality, and see the same happen to their efforts. Unfortunately not many can openly tell it like it is, b/c they fear losing customers or goodwill from the few people that do care (there are some good people that actually appreciate stuff and Value it accordingly).

I don't have that disadvantage however. And it's important to point problems out in this community.
I can say that a big % of the bitcoiners who act like real tough sovereign, strong individuals to the outside, are actually acting like cheapskate scared little hippies that rather would donate to Peter Shiff or "stack sats" than to support real bitcoin projects. Or they find excuses to play philosopher while doing absolutely nothing, but expect their bags to pump.
And maybe that's what's wrong in this environment.
Maybe "price can't pump" of a large chunk of the ones that should keep it alive are turning into bitcoin hippies?
Who knows.
Just my insight.
Who knows.

I keep building. And we'll see who's better of in the end.
The builders or the armchair philosopher types.

The incident with Sparrow on MACos is an unfortunate example of the power of all these "app" stores... Apple, F-droid, Google,... they're all gatekeepers of "our tools".

Free yourself.
I've created an offline/online open-source, standalone toolbox, where you don't depend on app stores at all... it's all NO-install, non-KYC, non-corporate.
(it's Value-4-Value ... appreciate it? donate
