    Donation, patronage, gift economy, mutual aid, or whatever you want to call it is fine by me. People can pirate a lot of proprietary software as well, yet people still pay.

      Piracy has clear downsides with proprietary software in most cases. Lack of updates and support are big ones. Also its considered moral to pay for your software.

          Yeah but then they’d be more of a support company that also happens to create the service. You could pay anyone for support it doesnt have to be the primary source.
