I miss the days when software was written by some dude that put his address on the software itself.
It is the old school version of patron or buy me a coffee. I have sent people a quick thank you note and a ten dollar bill... There is nothing like slow form communications where a back and forth can take 6 months to a year.
I sent a few bucks here and there to people back in the day. Couldn't afford much, but I appreciated that I got a full word processor for nothing more than the time spent on the BBS downloading it.
