Which is not the point. If you want to have success you need to copy the Blender/Godot model. Year by year they make great versions for all platforms, and they do well. A new browser should support both and rally the people to work on it, again like the Blender Foundation has done.

Of course thats a great metric, but to better exemplify, taking Blender again, with their pool of money (mostly donated by enthusiasts) they could really accelerate the development, hiring the best contributors on a case by case basis, which solidified the code base and continuity. What I am saying is there is a great middle ground, with a good team, where money and enthusiasm go hand in hand.
