This seems needlessly combative. I think "what if we had a swiss army knife platform that integrated a lot of different functionality" is a perfectly fine question regardless of the asker's inclination or ability to contribute to a platform's development.

    And I feel "for free" regularly isn't a good point to lead with. From the average person's perspective this isn't about cost, they're not even aware internet platforms cost money. As Google, Meta or X or the Chinese don't take money from the average user either. Nevertheless, they provide them with all kinds of features. So in my opinion we need to advertise with other distinguishing features and sort out cost some time later.
