At the risk of feeding the troll...

Here's a guy that works for free on a free operating system that many
thousands of individuals, and many companies, use for their desktop,
infrastructure, and public-facing servers. If the computer this guy is
using is in trouble, I'm very happy to help as I can to get him a new
one.

Look at the commits for toby, and I think you'll find it was worth
sending him a little money.

Look in a mirror when you ask that! :)

Really, it's in our own interest to support these people.
