npub1ktvleg4d765hrvqh7sx3fm6z5lxwgl8ef58fvt530nlcz2jea4hqg4fv3a (npub1ktv…fv3a) Even if they are given away for free, Unity isnt open-source. It costs if you want to use it. You cant give away something for free that you built if you are using a component that costs money. Its not like just cause you decided to give it away for free that anything i based my work on needs to waive their fees or something.
The truth is, there is good reason not to use Unity. Because it is a library that isnt open-source. That alone is a good reason and always has been. But for me it doesnt make much sense to complain that a for-profit product actually requires users of that product to pay.
