It's bananas when a FOSS project says they don't want more donations (because of how small their operational expenses are) when the app is buggy and becoming unusable (AntennaPod).

I can barely use the app for listening to podcasts anymore, yet I'm still being discouraged from donating money.

I don't understand it.

Debian is similar in that they take donations (in a very convoluted way the last time I made a donation) but are hardly willing to actually use it to make Debian better. The last I checked, anyway.

I don't run a FOSS project, so maybe I'm just missing something. But I do like to support them in ways I can, which is usually financially. What's the point if they aren't using the money to improve the software?
