@Di4na Also, management from non-software background doesn't understand the difference. They were horrified to find out, that we just use "things from the internet, a lone guy wrote", and they can't pay support for a bunch of things. (Not because it solves problems, but because it pushes the blame elsewhere, should something fail.)
Predictably, something that started as a noble initiative of donating to FOSS we use, ended up as paying yearly support fees to Microsoft and Canonical...
