This seems to be run by a random dude looking for funding:

Have you noticed the words "non-commercial" at the bottom of the page?

The random dude is not looking for funding.

non-commercial doesn't mean not looking for funding (neither does it mean looking for funding)

it means not intended with the purpose to make money from it

founding doesn't always imply. a startup-like process of selling stock (or similar) to investors which in turn want some profit from it long term

it can also mean looking for donations to found a project, i.e. cover it's costs

No, I did not. Are you looking at some other page?

founding != funding

You don't accomplish anything like this without funding. This is computing fanfic, at best.
