I do not get you. Are you against Donations?
I think it is great step. Of course it would be nice to have a Payment
option. But not all software is made based on payment.
There are tons of software that work by donations. Most famous one,
without beeing the next big thing, is the Apachee Web server.
Another one is the Famous J2EE Aplication Server from JBoss. Actually
the JBoss Server is a Paradigm shift in market. They became markt leader
within view years.
I am not saying Payment stuff is rubbish. I think it should also an
option. For Software that does not work like Apache, JBoss or Star
Citizen (The next Big thing ...).
But to have the Option is freedom. And freedom we want or?
Cheers

You don't get a big revenue from donations unless you create something
really big (e.g. the Whatsapp clients). And you rarely create big
stuff. If you need money for such things, a payment in a store is
superior to a donation method. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Hi,
We are still working hard on it but the tablet support work
has been eating our resources from this area. But some good
news is that we are planing to launch the donation support in
Store in really near future.
That's a really good news! Especially for for developers that
don't want to place any artificial barriers (such as requiring a
payment) between users and their applications but still want to
give the users a way of showing their gratitude and helping with
furter development. :) This seems to work quite nicely in the
Mozilla extension repository and elsewhere, so it is really good
the see it also coming to the Jolla store. :)
Best Wishes
Martin Kolman

Hi,
Any ETA for the support for commercial apps for Sailfish?
IIRC, it was the second half of 2014, :) so time long past :)
