Well that's the only way a "free" product is sustainable.
Linux is free qnd plenty sustainable.
If you can't support providing something for free via a mechanism that isn't pure and unadulterated evil, then don't do it for free. "We have to be monsters to make money" is not a valid position.
It also has a vast array of enormous compromises, which is why no one uses it.
I understand you have qualms with Linux, and that's plenty fine, but when the large majority of servers and smartphones around the world run it, you can't say that no one uses it.
That's not true at all. It has a huge market share, just not in desktops.
But again, that's completely and utterly irrelevant. If being evil is the only way for your business/product to exist, it does not deserve to exist.
