Not that this isn't right, but do you think people care about such
details? To my observation they think more like:
- Will <insert favourite app here> work?
- Where do I click?
- Where can I pay?
This implies the expectation to have it running on the favourite
platform and to have a simple, dummy-proof way to get it started. No
expectations on the technical details.
Please don't understand this as disrespect against technical oriented
people. There are many of them, but they're not the typical kind of
person bringing projects into the six-digit backing range. Non-technical
consumers compensate for their lack of expertise by shelling out money
happily and a lot more often.
