Thanks for replying. I hope you and others can find a way to make open source more sustainable without compromising the projects. Like I alluded to with my prisoners dilemma comment above, I think there is an optimum for everyone where companies try and make the open source project itself as valuable as possible instead of extracting value from it, and I'm happy hear about businesses that are legitimately trying to get us there.

Thanks for your response, I appreciate it. One thing that is a big risk to the optimum is open core companies relicensing the open source code after the project becomes popular, to prevent this some of our companies are set up as public benefit companies https://opencoreventures.com/blog/2022-11-introducing-authentik-security/ https://opencoreventures.com/blog/2022-11-introducing-authen...

  I lean towards a public benefit company for libreqos.io. I do wish more of the folk's business models we were actually helping (videoconferencing, gaming) would recognize their common interests with us, and chip in.
