The amount going to Humble is the most, even the the Humble slider is the lowest.

    The slider for Humble is furthest to the left, while also being the highest cut of the pie.

    That’s pretty fucking asshole design. You don’t get to claim you’re doing something “for charity” and then use psychological tricks to convince people to give more money to you. That’s not doing something for charity, that’s claiming charity as a marketing gimmick.

      Exactly, the Humble slider should mean the lowest but instead they get a whole 11 cents more than the Charity option, and 4 cents more than the developers. It’s preposterous. When the sliders are that close, yet there’s a whole 3% difference, it’s Asshole Design. Obviously the best answer is to use some other service that doesn’t even bother giving anything to charity at all. The good can get fucked, Perfect or Nothing.

        I vouch for a bit more nuanced.

        These sliders are either a software bug or asshole design. That doesn’t mean the entire site is crap.

        Other sites can have asshole pricing or asshole customer support humble clearly is a net plus even with this flaw.
