As if the majority of you will ever donate to a FOSS dev. This is one of the reasons I went into open source hardware instead. At least you can't easily copy a PCB, you have to build your own or buy mine. I'm not a corporation. I'm a dude living in the ghettos of Baltimore trying to do my hustle and live.

Wait is there a market for custom/open-source hardware? If so where?

Tindie.com is where I'm at. Most products there are open source.

How’s the revenue steam for you?
