KeepassXC nags me once a year to donate on the dude's birthday. DDU, WizTree, and Sublime also nag. And ShareX. I've donated to most of them now that I'm not broke. I only hope that other users do too so that the creators can be nicely compensated for their efforts.

I kinda like sublime's approach. It only asks when I repeatedly spam ctrl+s to save the file. But never on the first save. Only when I spam it five or so times.

I like to think the developer specifically targetted this "redundant consecutive save" behavior knowing many users do this.

But it's probably more like "every X saves, only after Y time period since last nag", which only coincidentally triggers for me when I spam the save shortcut
