This is the price we pay for not supporting open-source alternatives. I love open-source but making a project open-source is a huge endeavor (removing "oh shit" commits, making the project well-structured, etc.) with little gain. Often times, users just nag and complain in the Issues without offering to contribute or opening a PR. And the culture tends to get toxic as soon as the maintainer shows some resistance against some ideas.<p>And if the maintainer says "aight, I need to pay the bills somehow", everyone gets offended because "that's not open-source" and "how dare you ask us for money". The end result is that companies that pay well attract the best talent, and open-source devs end up being discouraged, with little motivation to improve the software.<p>Adobe is just one example. I hate them with all my guts, but as long as people are more willing to pay Adobe big chunks of money while hesitating to press the "Buy me a coffee" button of an open-source alternative, I don't see Adobe/etc. change their strategy.
