Agreed, and I think there is a bit of a shift to where open source is being used more frequently as a marketing technique/getting the first traction for funding and eyeballs then land and expand to nearby non-open source areas which muddies the waters of the entire community. Not only do the equivalent of the old hackers of yesteryear who supported this movement no longer feel they need to be running Linux machines as their daily driver (ever startup engineer seems to have a Mac), but those running many well respected projects have to justify business impact which might put the OSS side at risk at times. There are well known huge OSS projects today that change licenses for future releases even after contributions (ex: text gen), or relase open source models/software that would be very commendable except they have their own modification to the licensing agreements to filter out competitors or just make it ambiguos enough that you don't want to touch it since you don't want to pay for lawyers yourself (ex: Llama, Falcon) to figure out what the non standard additions would mean to your project. Building a customer base off open souce to funnel towards your revenue or kneecap competitors is the direct opposite of what the FOSS advocates of old would advocate for (even if the right strategic move) an would have been such a philosophically bad thing to do that they'd be to embarrased to do it (there are ways to make money without doing that, see Redhat), there was an emotional aspect to the the devs who grew up in or adjacent to this movement 15+ years ago. Open source for many companies now rhymes with the Open in OpenAI, where yes, it may have started that way with the best intentions, but things change. The idealists are gone, which is a bit sad, bu it's probably ok to not have the next RMS evoling in a computer lab today with a new rendition of the open source software song reconfigured for tik tok virality (j/k the GNU project was a key piece of what drove Linux forward of course).
