I hear you, OTOH if this software was so valuable how come we aren’t funding it? A lot of the world runs on OSS with a coupe overwhelmed maintainers who get treated as if they owed everybody working software yet can’t make a living off it.

We should fund it. Go read the types of comments I make in my profile. I always advocate for explicitly taxing big tech to publicly fund open source development.

Also it's why we need to pass things like medicare for all and universal childcare to give workers some breathing room if they want to change jobs/industries without condemning them to death or poverty.
