You’re a weird one. I donate regularly to my most used open source projects if they have a primary development team. But that’s not even the point. The point is, open source software isn’t usually published as a way to make loads of money. Usually open source software is created out of necessity or as a passion project. You won’t convince many Lemmy users that a corporate product meant to generate capital is the better use of time and resources by such a wide margin that we should spend our money on it. Jellyfin exists despite Emby closing source. Feel free to continue to pay for Emby. I’ll use the community resources that are on offer for free and are more than good enough for my use case.
