This smacks of a complete misunderstanding of SaaS and FLOSS. How did this person even get into software development? Seriously, because to me if a SaaS is using a FLOSS licensed library and regularly contributes to it on its github repo then it's clearly not a matter of FLOSS in decline. It's just that FLOSS as a whole has become the ordinary of software development (just like CAD/CAM is the ordinary of aircraft manufacturing). Also, using Google Trends to prove a point on something that requires you to see actual participation just proves my skepticism is right on this point. Google Trends doesn't look at git commits. Google Trends doesn't look at symposiums or standards organization contributions (cash, research, code, etc). All it does is look at search words. Wow! You found out that people aren't searching that much on the subject anymore, WTG! /s
