    Hey, we are all freeloaders here. How many of us can say they’ve contributed to every single component of the stack we use everyday to get our cat memes? Like GRUB, the kernel, systemd/whatever you prefer, Mesa, X.Org/Wayland, your DE of choice, Firefox?

    We can even make a profit by using these tools :D

      Hey, we are all freeloaders here.

      Speak for yourself. I’ve paid for FOSS to support development on multiple occasions.

        I’m glad you do. I want to start contributing and donating too. But I do think the definition of freeloader is a bit adjusted for FOSS software.
