I have nothing against FOSS. Good things have been done.

I have an issue with people acting like if it isn't FOSS it is morally wrong. You may not have done this, but it's a vibe I've seen more than once here.

That and a notion that the app should be free. That's fine, but if people are "saving money" I hope it goes to the servers or lemmy devs.

In short: an undercurrent to some FOSS posts has seemed to be entitlement, not just a desire to see FOSS thrive.
