thats probably my biggest issue with open alternatives.

they always fail to take advantage of those opportunities and things stay broken until its way too late.

But I also harp a lot to my superiors about donating to open-source projects we utilize, make loads of money thanks to them, yet never give anything back.

I kinda get that some projects with limited backing can't "get their shit together", when successful users don't give them anything. It's a stupid pattern, and I hope we can break it.
