For those who like to play a different game in the private sector, a product fit to them will be supplied. If you only tolerate Free software is fine, your choice. For me being open to what exist is essential for survival and rise.
Yes, I think free software is far superior to anything else. But that's not because I'm a commie like stallman.
For the record, Richard Stallman is very pro commercial software, making money from your software development, etc - in fact this is fundamental since his very beginning of the "modern" Free Software movement over 30 years ago.
A lot of people misunderstand this.
Stallman says "make as much money as you can from free software, just make sure it's free software".
yes :) Free speech, not free beer
:) Which is why, when non-free software is presented with only a promise of "it'll be free libre at some unknown point in the future, but 'before version 1.0'", some folks are naturally skeptical :D
