What an amazing story of human cooperation. One on hand, everyone wants to make boatloads of money, on the other hand, sometimes we realize that if we all pitch in to a shared resource, we can make something better and cheaper than otherwise possible.
There are so many things I wish humanity could apply this to, glad to see it working in practice!

- MrLeap 7y agoPretty sure blender started out as the product of a company that went out of business in the 90's, for whatever reason, they decided to open source the product instead of let it die. I'm not countermanding you. Blender is awesome, the volunteers who make it perpetually better are awesome.
- Topgamer7 7y agoYep, however ton bought the rights by crowd funding it. part of the agreement was to open source it.
