There is exactly no single reason to make this personal. What I meant is that writing a free piece of software does not necessarily have to be paid work. A variety of popular software tools, including a few web browsers, by the way, is written and maintained in the developers’ free time.

“Doing stuff” is not the same thing as “doing paid work”.

What's making it personal?

Stop being a sophist, you'll have more meaningful conversations.
