Open-source-contribution Memes

Nothing like watching billion-dollar companies build their entire infrastructure on free open-source software maintained by some indie dev in their spare time, then never contributing a dime back. Meanwhile, that same indie dev is out here sponsoring other projects on GitHub with their $20/month Patreon income. Big Tech will literally depend on a library that's holding together half the internet, maintained by one person who hasn't slept properly since 2019, and their "contribution" is filing bug reports demanding features. But indie devs? They're out here actually reading the CONTRIBUTING.md file, submitting PRs, and throwing a few bucks at the maintainer's Ko-fi. The real kicker is when corporations slap an "Open Source Advocate" badge on their LinkedIn while their legal team spends weeks reviewing a one-line PR contribution because heaven forbid they accidentally give back to the community.
