In these uncertain and divisive times, we appreciate Anthropic offering support to the Blender project in the form of a Patron-level membership. This enables the Blender team to keep pursuing projects independently, and to focus on building tools for artists and creators.

If we look at only the Blender Development Fund, the list of the corporate patrons include Meta, Google, Nvidia and even Adobe. In general, this is the situation for a lot of FOSS projects. If Anthropic as a Blender patron is bad news, then things were never good in the first place.

In my opinion, whether it's good or bad, it is a compromise that we rely on.
