This.
Someone like Rogean or Nilbog doesn't dedicate the massive amount of time and energy it takes to keep this place running because they are motivated by money (especially when that money is a drop in the bucket vs. what professional developers/dev ops makes, ie. $150k+/year).
They do it for the love of the game. So, it stands to reason that if they ever lose interest, money won't help re-motivate them. The only way it might is just as a signal that "people are excited about this place" ... not for the actual donation itself.
