Michael has been strategizing ways to fund his Print My Blog plugin with donations and asked himself why he should expect people to donate since he had never given to a plugin developer himself. Michael looks at the reasons for not giving: lack of awareness, selfishness, laziness, and perhaps the fact that “we have it ingrained in our culture that usually you pay for physical things, but immaterial things are usually free.”
These are all barriers that can be overcome by relatively simple actions from plugin developers want to attract donors. 🎁
