In the world of open source, how many decide to become a business with full time developers in year 1-2?

I honestly don’t know. I thought Open source is usually a hobby unless it becomes really successful.

I guess open source wording is being over used nowadays! It’s kind becoming like crypto used to mean cryptography but then it turned into the profit making model! I’m not saying that it’s bad but when you build freedom of tech you don’t usually expect a return ! Look how Bitcoin started and read nostr:npub1g53mukxnjkcmr94fhryzkqutdz2ukq4ks0gvy5af25rgmwsl4ngq43drvk and Satoshi email ! There definitely were no $ interests and 0 VCs

Cute, but the better way is to learn how to program and contribute, because you realize that your industry changing app idea is just a repurpose of a bunch of functions that've already been implemented.
