> Blender would die, is what. You know, I don’t think it would? If autodesk depended on blender, and the core of autodesk was blender, I think autodesk would throw gobs of money at making sure blender flourished. They’d probably try and hire lots of blender devs too - just to get them to work on core blender features so they could make autodesk better. There’s plenty of examples of this happening in the wild. Is FreeBSD dead because macos is built on top of a lot of its code? Is redis dead because of redislabs’ proprietary offerings? No. Is SQLite hurt by all the projects built on top of it? No. The opposite - it’s strengthened by being used.
