How does one go about finding these people and make sure they don't end up like the dude that maintains slackware?
What's going on with that guy?
He was having financial issues in 2018 no clue if things have gotten better I can only assume it has as there's been releases since then.
He was forced to move from California back to Minnesota cause he couldn't afford life on the west coast anymore.
Recently he stated in an interview that it's getting tight in Michigan, too.
But he still has a hobby of restoring old cars from the 60's so he's not starving.
I'm donating a monthly amount to him (roughly the equivalent of what I'd pay for an M365 subscription), cause IMO Slackware needs to survive.
Unfortunately, he'd need about 200 regular donaters like that to live off, and Slackware's user base probably isn't large enough for that anymore.
