Figure out how the open source library can fund your cost of living. Sometimes that&#x27;s a cloud version of a self-hosted project, or commercially licensed add-ons that are useful to businesses, or premium support. See Sidekiq, Plausible, Sentry, Chatwoot, sindresorous, et al.<p>But from looking at your profile, you already know this so this comes off as marketing hidden behind a question.
