The problem is that outside big corporations, devs nowadays aren't willing to pay for development tooling, although we surely like to be paid.

Thus platforms and SaaS products, seem to be the only way to make sustainable open source products.

> devs nowadays aren't willing to pay for development tooling

I can't speak generally because it varies but is this really the case here? Other posters have commented on missing features and issues with their product i.e. Deno Deploy so is it not willing to pay or not worth it?

		Devs are notoriously hard to sell. They are hard to impress(I can do that in a weekend, which is also probably true for Deno anyway) and stingy.
