    I’d tip the developers, but not the shareholders or execs who treat the developers like slaves…

      Nah man. Tipping has its place and it’s not to take the place of regular payment for goods. Developer makes a product, I’ll buy it like a product.

      Expanding the scope of tipping is not good.

        Tipping is a exploitive behavior used to underpay staff with a high variance system. Employers need to pay a living wage.
