I had the same reaction. It is, to my mind, the height of chutzpah to complain about things one receives for free. It is a delusion to think that a contribution to a kickstarter 3 years ago is still funding current development.

The team needs a steady source of income to continue development into the future. If only 1/4 of the user base is paying for that then development will slow or founder. I am amazed and grateful for the work the team has done on such slim resources provided by only a fraction of the user base. They should be receiving accolades.
