> What is plain hypocrisy to me are the people who developed "for profit" open source projects, and are angry when they dont get paid enough, when the projects they have created rely on GNU tools, the Linux kernel (Perhaps Debian), a libre software database on so on.

Why do you exclusively point out "for profit" open source projects here? What about basically any commercial software that leeches on open source software without donating anything?

GP is pointing out that it's hypocritical to expect to be paid for open source contributions and at the same time pay nothing to upstream projects.

But they're saying that it's also hypocritical to release commercial software and expect people to pay you without contributing anything to upstream open source projects.

GP thinks wanting to be able to eat and pay rent is hypocrisy if you release open source software that depends on open source software.
