He kind of reminds me of myself 25 years ago, when I used to write utility app after utility app for DOS, early Windows systems, Unix systems etc. Hundreds of long forgotten tools that were used by either just myself, or large corporations and government departments for a modest fee. Had there been a Stripe or easy way of monetising decades ago, I could have made some serious coin. But eventually I burnt out and started a 'boring' consulting business to pay the bills.
I just loved creating, and I wish that someone had paid me enough to just keep experimenting and creating them because who knows where it could have gone. I paid for a DevUtils licence because I wanted Tony to continue to be encouraged to create more without feeling unappreciated, and I don't want him to end up an old, jaded programmer like me. ;) I can either pay $25 over the next week to buy coffees that I will pee down the drain, or I can help a young indie programmer create something new...

I recently quit my full-time job and go solo to work on DevUtils and my other apps. Your comment is such a great motivation boost for me!
I really appreciate this, thank you so much!
