“Love” seeing people kick others when they’re down. You may not agree with or play pls donate, but you’re ignoring the bigger issue which is Roblox making changes without ample notice to creators or providing documentation of changes to systems that affect everyone. Uncalled for.

Roblox will no longer allow games to sell gamepasses from other games starting from May 29th. As a mandatory replacement, Roblox is introducing the Transfers API. You must be age-checked or have a linked parental account to either receive or send Robux. Any Robux will immediately be received upon you accepting the Robux. You will receive 90% of the Robux, instead of the previous 60%; however, 10% still goes to the game's creator. To send Robux, you must be subscribed to Roblox Plus. Roblox currently only allows a 1,000 Robux maximum to be sent per month. You will not be able to cancel any transfer. Additionally, you can transfer Robux on the "Buy Robux" page or by donating it to a user's page. If you are under the age of 18, your parent must approve each transfer request. Any request not accepted within a week will be sent back to the person who initially sent it. Any Robux earned from transfers are not DevEx-able.

I actually do think Roblox wants to maximize creator earnings. It's not as simple as everyone thinks tho. App store fees and whatnot are a huge cost sink for Roblox. The CEO himself stated that whatever they can optimize will go to first to Devs IIRC.

14 year old describes how he makes $100k per month on Roblox “We made a game in 14 hours start to finish, we put $100 into ads, and once it hit the algorithm we sold the game for $250k”
