I love how the cartoon at the top of the page shows two &quot;indie-developer&quot; looking characters in all their idiosyncratic glory, but then lower on the page the user profile photo is of some corporate tool looking guy. It&#x27;s kinda like the the joke that is &quot;tipping culture&quot;. One supposes it is to show sincere gratitude and be merit based, but almost inevitably it ends up being like any other economic exchange, just providing cover for employers who are unwilling to provide a fair wage to their employees. GitHub is already populated with code generated on the unacknowledged narrative of &quot;free ($) OSS&quot;. This seems to provide some whitewash.
