I know reality is tough to a lot of people, and I'll probably get down-voted, because I'm not rainbows and kittens about this seemingly growing-in-popularity topic.

But, don't you guys think these statements are a bit unfair for Leo? I mean, yeah. the guy worked hard on it but out right saying: "Doesn't matter if you'll never use the app. That's not the point."

Don't you think it's degressing into a charity drive with these kinds of statements?

The man worked hard. I'll give him that, but I would never buy an app just because a certain person worked on it. If it appeals to my interests or productivity? Yes. Done and done. If it doesn't...well, looks like I'm not interested.

I support the guy, it's a pretty cool, encouraging story. However, it's really taking away from what the guy earned VS what his title in society and a good deed is doing for him.
