I mean, it’s equivalent to the minimum salary i guess. I think they’re european, and in france the minimum salary is around 1800€ before taxes. That’s not a lot in the absolute, but in the foss world, it is quite comfortable.
It’s definitely wrong to say we’re poor, no idea where people got that idea. Yet the amount of money we get is very little for a Lead Developer. It also doesn’t allow us to pay any additional developers.
Yet the .ml stans say Desselines lives in abject poverty and “does this out of the goodness of his own heart”. Suuuure.
That’s split between him and Nutomic though. USD $4250 is €3,665.80 (as of writing this comment), divided between them is €1,832.90. That’s not a lot.

If you split that between 2/3 devs it’s not a lot. It’s a decent part time job, I suppose. But in a lot of places not enough.
where do you live that 4k between multiple people is considered wealthy
