I believe that, at the end of the day, open source enthusiasts still need to make a living.

God forbid a passion project stay just a passion project. You don't see this monetization perspective in the hobbyist 3D printing community or airbrushing communities. This is directly a result of how much OSS is framed as a "time sink" instead of enjoyable hobby. I don't like this narrative, and don't think its healthy.

MinIO is absolutely not a passion project, it's a business.
