>>108465576
such weird phrasing
so if i dont donate it will be unsecure?
>>
>>108465583
they have to use some form of coercion tactic, in this case a false dilemma
otherwise its akin to a guy in a suit going up to you asking for change

It's the same as the MS tactic of scaring people that W10 is randomly insecure.

>Why are they like this?
tfw be any controversial platform (legally, politically, you name the angle you're "problematic" under):
- you get nuked by payment providers every 2 weeks
- you get scary lettersfrom various law firms paid by (((them))) to shut down anything not Approved (tm) by The People (aka the states ruling class)
- you must reply to said letters, but "everything you say will be held against you" applies, and so you need legal counsel for each reply, which is *minimum* $2-3k each billed hour (and you can bet they're not billing you just one hour, even to rid a 1-page pdf file and reply 50 words!)
- it's hard to even find people willing to do business with you in general, and if they do they'll drop you at the first email from some retarded Acceptable Thought And Behaviour Police drone, so you have to either pay a premium to the few that are willing to cooperate, or DIY shit which takes time and cost money

and then, after all that... some fucking retard on /g/ is mad you're e-begging. here's news for you: when a small-time org e-begs it's because they're 1 month away from bankrupcy
and once you fold down cause you gotta pay bills, salaries, and services you rely on, then another schizo on /g/ will complain about how things are mysteriously so pozzed and everything good never lasts
well yeah, "everything good" doesn't have fucking billions in politically motivated funding bankrolling it, usually.
extra bonus: the schizos on /g/ think it's the management of that small bankrupt org that voluntarily shut down after all of this, or worse they're accused of selling out. many such cases

you fucking suck

>inb4 you seem very mad
try being on the receiving end, putting all your energy in trying to make a good thing happen, working for free for years on it instead of making a ton of money just working somewhere in big tech, indebting yourself personally for in the hopes that shit eventually pans out and you can make it at least sustainable one day, but trying every single possible option to avoid having to e-beg in the process cause it *is* disgusting and disgraceful
you don't have to donate but jesus fuck session is one of the very few remaining attempts at having actually private messaging, when the whole world is more and more full of spying on you, and your reaction is to compare it to fucking microsoft of all things?
you deserve the fucking id/age verification on all the websites and device you use after all, and enjoy the police ringing you in 5 years because you used an edgy meme in a group chat
>>
>>108465583
Well, if session shuts down session users might be insecure
Yes, they can use another messaging app but migrating your contacts to another platform is hard
FOSS apps really appreciate these donations
