npub1tj54dz997wrdyqgf8sc36z3upy3ld0ujmwqyx42dtqxcwc7l68fqlx5ry2 (npub1tj5…5ry2) that's a perfectly legit business model - if there's some FOSS project that requires either skills or costs to run, there's also demand from those who want to use it but without those costs, and there's therefore a market for hosting.
What enrages many in Unity's case, instead, is the "every time somebody installs a game that was built using our engine a "runtime fee" must be paid back to us".
This is a very different (and very dangerous) business model.
