hhhmmm..
Been thinking about this most of the day...
For Linux folks and those in the know; there maybe an understanding - may help with the idea of the why and open source and what you're paying for...
For those coming from Windows - pay for an unknown?? What if I don't like Linux or this version, I don't know XFCE or what a desktop environment is....
Wait there are other free Linux's?
Should you receive compensation to help sustain Linux Lite? YES!!!!!!!!!!
Not mention its in the name... Simple Fast FREE ...
But how? How to better drive revenue - Ads? More ads will bring more Ad blockers...
Merchandising? Maybe a link on the Forums and Web for the LL Apparel Shop?? Might help draw more views/sales...
I don't know -- I'm thinking....
Maybe.... For those viewing this thread....
I've been a member of the forums for about 6years now.. Coming up on 1600 posts.
In that time I like to think I've helped many of good folks here; and in similarity in my spare time.
I've always hoped my donation of knowledge and time has been of benefit to Jerry, as I have benefitted, not with just a Free OS but gaining knowledge along the way.
If these forums have aided or helped you, even if by viewing a similar post; why not pay it forward and donate LL, even if just a little there is no minimum
If you've been on the fence and you enjoy Linux Lite, why not donate - I will be contributing this eve.
Want to know how/where:
