We had hoped this day would never come, but Session has now entered its final 90 days of operation. If we are unable to reach our funding goal within this period, the Session Technology Foundation (STF) will be forced to shut down.
To date, the STF has received approximately $65,000 in donations. This is enough to maintain critical Session infrastructure for the next 90 days. We are extremely grateful for the support Session has received from the community, but unfortunately this is not sufficient to retain full-time developers. As a result, all paid staff and developers will have their final working day on April 9, 2026. After this date, some team members will continue on a primarily volunteer basis to help maintain Session until July 8, 2026.
Nah.
I know folks making 400+ that are specialists in a niche technology but relatively mainstream position.
They also get stock which raises it to near 500k, then standard bennies.
Tech has crazy money and for desired roles.
I’m in an office of 20somethings pushing 150k+ direct salary plus full benefits and whatnot.
I wouldn’t expect to be paid this in a flyover state though.
