QuadsZilla Firefox plugins (like most software) don’t make that much on a per user basis from donations. Here’s the story of the writer of a noscript plugin “confessing all”, only to be followed up with more donations than he’s probably received in the life of the project:
When I woke up, the sky was still falling (especially on AMO, where NoScript had had received more ratings than in 4 full years of life). But I also noticed some unexpectedly encouraging email was coming in and, incredibly, donations were skyrocketing. Maybe the sincerity of my sorrow for this incident was arriving to someone. So I started multitasking between the forum and this very writing, and here we are.
Amazing, but as Groucho Marx once said “the key to success in life is sincerity, if you can fake that you have really got it made.”
