I think it would be immensely cool if OpenAI donated some of that crapload of AI money to the people behind LibreOffice to help with development - and then having like a blog post about it or something would already improve the project's visibility a bit more (hey, every bit helps). What's peanuts to them could help with the sustainability of the project a whole bunch!

We're absolutely on the same page with you, and I try to do my best with what I can in that regard.

On the other hand, I see a perspective which thinks that companies are entitled to use everything for free and don't need to support the Free Software ecosystem because it's an externality that they don't have to care for, which bothers me a lot.

What I was trying to understand that whether this comment was supporting that perspective, or is there something I'm missing entirely.

You misread that comment so much that I'm not sure going too deep here matters much.

I might have. I'm a human with a different native language. Sorry if that offended you. Was just trying my best.

Nobody is offended. I'm also not a native speaker.
