This is why I completely support Redis and Elastic for their business source licenses, maintainers who :

• provided paid compiled binaries
• refuse pull requests or don't have public issue boards
• respond to demands with "PRs welcome"
• have PR and issue templates with promoting their services
• demand payment from companies
• purposefully use GPLv3 or other infectious licenses to make companies uncomfortable using it in closed source

and so on and so forth.

The OSI definition of opensource ain't gonna pay my bills.

Lobby your company to donate to opensource projects they use. Lobby for them to attribute an opensource budget. If you have money, set aside a budget yourself to donate to opensource projects. If you don't have money, but can code, have time, and the will, contribute to opensource. If you are non-technical and don't have money but use opensource, just promote it.

Whatever you are, be part of the solution and help opensource become a meaningful option to make a living.
