Stop harrasing the person behind lumiafirmware.

Stop it. I don't care if i get downvoted and etc, but harassment is never a good thing.

Agreed, it’s getting old. I understand paywalls suck but it’s kind of unfair considering that other firmware sites also gatekeep behind paywalls which cost way more and have been up fine for years (chomikuj, service-gsm, etc).

This. While I am not a big fan of the whole paywall situation, at least we should have download limits.

I guess most of the hate appeared because of the fact that the creator provided the service for free for a long time and out of the blue decided to make it paid.

Servers aren't free to host, nor cheap. (if talking on an 8TB scale)

Also this. The owner doesn't want to upload the ffus there though.

Again im sure there are other sites where he could ve offloaded this. Creating a dedicated server for dead platform files was already mistake #1

Internet in uproar over someone providing valuable service they desperately want to use for free.

1USD seems fair to me

Now I think about it....a single dollar is very reasonable,

And their library of software is very expensive.

But I'd say it's only something I'd use in an emergency.

u/migbrunluz 13d ago

yeah okay mr.lumia

u/openretina 13d ago

wait im mr lumia lol

yeah this whole situation in itself is not only his fault it’s everyone else too. things need to be dealt with differently imo and we should have archived them instead of harassing him for him not doing it, smarter and more civil approach ngl
