I'm always hesitant when I see digital services funded by a single one-off payment. Running a service requires ongoing funding. You sometimes see this with games that have a multiplayer component. People buy the game, but the multiplayer servers won't last forever.

@cwebber@octodon.social Thanks. I completely understand: I'm super hesitant to critique in public. I think syntax pivots are incredibly hard. When I learnt coffeescript I occasionally had to look at the compiled JS to understand the syntax. Somehow the JS felt more 'real' (and wasn't whitespace sensitive). Small syntax changes are much easier: just give the user an autofix script for their programs.
