The 1.7M MAU number seems highly suspect. Maybe it is just my bubble, but I have never even once met anyone online or offline that admitted to using Session.
And why donated to a doomed project like that, when there are plenty of better alternatives?
If people use it, it is clearly providing a value to them. Why shouldn’t the users try and sustain something providing value?
And even as a non-user, the more active developers and projects in this space the better - it’s never good to put all your eggs in one basket. Will I personally donate? Probably not, but I see no benefit in trashing the idea of users donating.
