Riccardo Mori on the annoying negative App.net comments from many bloggers:

Brief aside: $36 per year is not a fortune. They keep insisting how paying for apps and services is the right thing to do. What’s the harm in giving $36 as a donation to support the cause, even if they’re not active App.net users? Or why not switch to a monthly subscription, try to get involved again, see what happens?

Mori has some really good points in his post.
