The priority has been set on all the strings so that newer blog posts are shown first. Before, the oldest posts were shown to translators first. Hopefully this makes it much easier to translate blog posts.

To get started we began with a series of user research interviews to gain a deeper perspective on the current challenges developers and alternative app stores have, when it comes to app deployment. We paid particular attention to various compensation models favored by the developers and explored how to incorporate easy payment options into our solution.

At the end of the day, finding a streamlined approach for app distribution that considers diverse compensation model options for developers and users is a tall order. However motivation and support for the concept is high, from both Mobifree partners, F-Droid contributors and the FOSS community in general.

[Open Collective](https://opencollective.com/) offers similar services and is also FOSS-based. However, Open Collective offers more advanced financial management tools for its users, and is geared towards larger projects with more complex needs. Additionally, they are more focused on individually occurring payments, rather than recurring ones. However, this is also an option. Several developers and app stores told us that prefer in-app payment models, because it gives them more freedom and flexibility for developers and end users alike. In many cases in-app payments include an SDK which is built into the APK file. This enables in-app payments to occur. The SDK typically integrates with a payment gateway such as Stripe or PayPal or a service provider. The SDK also includes UI components for payments, supports various payment methods such as credit cards and digital wallets, and also handles the transaction management. Finally we discussed in-app advertising as a potential revenue source. There are of course inherent privacy issues with advertising models that allow user tracking, so the general consensus was that if in-app advertising models are used, they should be done so with caution. Not only are privacy and data protection founding principles for both Mobifree and F-Droid, the use of tracking-based in-app advertising poses a moral dilemma as well. If someone wants to gain access to an app, but does not have the financial means to purchase it, they can use it at a different kind of price - their user data. It should be mentioned that it is possible to include in-app advertising without user tracking. However the lead conversion ratio drops dramatically, so the efficacy of this approach is not nearly as high.

Within the FOSS community, donation-based models are regularly adopted to improve access to technology, while securing financial sustainability of FOSS-based projects. [Liberapay](https://en.liberapay.com/) is a great FOSS-based example, providing a way to help facilitate regular, reoccurring donation payments, in a similar way to subscription model.
