The reputation of open source is already trashed. Companies like Amazon abused what started as a passion for many people, and that passion is now costing them their wellbeing so they're revolting.
The real open source belongs inside the GPL bubble, where you are legally obligated to share back, and it was battle tested when closed platforms like iOS gained traction.
Did people help pressure Apple to make licenses like GPL viable in their walled garden? Or did people dissed GPL-ed software because they couldn't use it in the Apple ecosystem? The moment we conceded with "LGPL with linking exception" marked the loss of the iOS battle.
Remember that GNU exists because Stallman couldn't ahem install a printer. And guess what? People avoid the distros with ONLY FOSS components because "it's impractical". If a distro becomes popular is because it includes a collection of proprietary drivers.
Our convenience is what made open source what it is today. And you know what? I accept my fault in the great scheme of things.
I was burned by people profiting with work I made for free while I was struggling to survive during the 2008 crisis. I am already familiar with the feeling of betrayal by the people who was supposed to support my work. Open Source was not for me.
