Without any risk of exposing identity, short of writing something identifiable in a text field.&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#x27;d be curious, personally, to see management get a yearly vote of [no] confidence, for example. Is that crazy?&lt;p&gt;Keep in mind we are mostly focused right now on user experience and performance improvements. But we allocate a certain amount of time to cryptographic features that just aren&amp;#x27;t possible in other software, such as this coin flip thing. We&amp;#x27;ve been talking about voting and surveys, too.</text></comment>

Are they actually making any money off it yet, or will they eventually run out and fail to switch over to paid accounts in time before the company evaporates?</text></comment>
