Is 30,000 euros a lot???
In open source development it is a lot more than 0€
It's not a very grateful job. Many developers provide an option to make donations, but often don't promote it too hard. So if you do not have a dedicated person organizing a crowdfunding campaign but concentrate on development instead, it's nearly impossible to reach such sums. Often you also get pressured by the community.
In other news, PieFed is open for donations here. The price of a coffee every month would constitute a pretty significant increase in donations.
