Maybe too direct, But why is it paid?

I don't mean it shouldn't be or whatever. I'm just interested to know what is your thought behind "Support the Indie Maker Movement" you've mentioned.

It's only 1$.

You cant make something like this in 8.2 mins considering minimum wage is 7.5$ in USA. Why make things for free anyway, people rarely appreciate things they get for free.

That really wasn’t the question. I’m not asking why it is not free!

But off topic, > people rarely appreciate things they get for free

If people wouldn’t appreciate it, so many people wouldn’t create so many free software/plugin/tool/book/content.
