Providing free labor for any specific company is a bad idea unless you earn something of equivalent value to the money you'd have otherwise made in return; I think people have an inflated sense of the derived value they get from moderation or using any given platform. Open source has the potential to be that as well, only usually offering a tenuous value proposition for the people working on it, but a very obvious value proposition for the companies using it.
