I don't think nginx is a good example though. They have a lot of features they refuse to get contributed as they want them paywalled in nginx-plus Like service discovery and better load balancing algorithms.

Isn’t it though? Nginx (org) allows companies like Kong (org) to exist? I honestly think that’s a better relationship, kong basically advertises nginx (seems that nginx also talks about kong openly)… and yet both have enterprise services. They may not be in direct competition but they do have overlap. That’s what good competition looks like. Edit: I do not know if kong pays nginx.
