		rglullis 6 months ago \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Blender 4.5 LTS Can you imagine if everyone paying monthly subscription for any type of software took 10% of their budget and donated to the alternatives? I'd bet that any FOSS project could reach parity to their proprietary counterpart in three years.

The whole point is subscription software is you don’t have 10% left of your budget to finance anything else.
