No such thing as “free” on the Internet

NetZero taught me that lesson back in the 90s

    like all FOSS projects, the Blender Project is user- and developer-supported.

    nothing is "free"

    The FOSS acronym starts with free (as in speech).

    Obviously development takes time but payment for that time is usually done as a sort of solidarity based system if the developer(s) want money.

    I never saw ads on the debian website, kernel.org, blender, codeberg, uBlock, fmhy.net etc etc
