minus-squareEndymion_Mallornlinkfedilink16•2 months agoI’m willing to be ridiculous, because the pittance most workaday programmers and designers get from their hits is also ridiculous.
minus-square@sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilink3•2 months agoYeah, even 50% would be baller. So like 20% to the storefront, 20% to the publisher, and 10% to random other costs.
