I think the comment on corpos is good, but calling the naive people fools might be unnecessary - it’s probably not their fault nobody told them about this sort of thing before and learning that lesson is probably disappointing enough already.

It’s unfortunate that this keeps happening to projects like MinIO and others too.

We should return to the HN guidelines, and read it as charitably as possible.

I'm interpreting it as closer to pity, rather than genuine criticism =)

		Sure! Slightly edited the tone, but I’m noticing that often people have idealistic attitudes about FOSS until they get burnt by bad faith actors or even just indifferent corps that have to keep the lights on. Quite unfortunate, definitely not their fault. Pity is correct.
