I don't trust the open source community anymore. Thanks to swc, I'm being treated fairly well now and I've gained some honor, but to be honest, I lost my toughness because of swc. I used to be a naive person for most things, but while maintaining swc for a long time, I came to dislike stupid, proud, or shameless people.
Few people contribute, and even companies with a corporate value of tens of trillions of dollars are mostly just taking it and using it without any contribution. The community demands this, do that, like a mother-in-law, and take it for granted. Money? Even open source projects as widely used as Babel cannot hire a single developer.
And what rewards are you getting now? As a Silicon Valley developer, of course, I get a lot of money, but if I hadn't made swc, I would have gotten a lot more. More than one or two ideas had to be abandoned because of swc. And even if I ignore it, I don't think the reward I'm getting now is not that great considering the time I've spent. For most of the period, there was little compensation, but the funny thing is that the stress was enough to change my personality, and I suffered a lot in many ways.
Still, I was still thinking about making it open-source because I was very open-source-friendly, and after a discussion I thought that it would be better to open-source, and I went to Twitter. But then I saw the kind of human I hated the most, and I completely scrapped the open source plan. I see it occasionally on the swc issue tracker, but there are voices that want to make me feel bad. These garbage sounds are the biggest problem with open source. Such sounds break the mind. The problem with open source is more with those kinds of people than money.
Anyway, I decided to make the type checker a commercial program.
