• Verification: No, the actual donation status will not be verified. This is to avoid having to invent code that does that.
• Honor based: Yes.
• Fake donate: Will users be able to select "I donated already" without actually having donated? Yes.

TODO

• Issue: If the user makes a screenshot, the systray icons should not look different for users who donated vs those who did not donate yet.
• Solution: The systray would have an (invisible) countdown from 60 seconds to 0 seconds. Once 0 is reached, the systray terminates itself so it vanishes from the systray.

• Avoid duplicate systray icons in different VMs.
  • Only run in the default VM.
  • Skip if running in a "multiple VM". I.e., not the default VM but a VM with a local internal IP different from the default internal IP.
