I've been contributing to [sr.ht](https://meta.sr.ht/) for a while, which is a commercial project but fully open source, so any work I put in is beneficial to others. Additionally, Drew (owner/author) has proven himself a prolific open source contributor so I have no problem in donating some of my time to his projects since I know it will all be paid back via his work on this and other projects.

The project is still pretty young so it's easy to jump in and add some polish or implement new features you'd like to have.

Right, that makes total sense for fully open source projects, but I'm particularly interested in understanding developers' perception about partly open-sourced organizations with open programs and everything but the company as a whole is commercial.
