 At the risk of sounding like a completely insensitive and retarded prick, isn’t this kinda how free open source software development works? People with the time and skills to build stuff just do it due to whatever internal drivers they have, and then people may or may not donate to the cause? 
 Aka it generally isn’t anyone’s main stream of income. Like if i were a dev i’d have a job at some company and then build on open source shit whenever i both can and want to, expecting nothing in return but probably getting donations and being happy

I sound like a tota fuckwad rn don’t i 🤣 
 Nop. Thats actually spot on. 
 Nope

Diffusion does open source not make.

 Yeah, I take back my note.
