    My opinion is that most people think, oh if the project X dies, I move on and just use another alternative because there is always someone who provides alternatives.

    The problem is that this, as mentioned in the video, creates a paradox because alternatives are maybe less well maintained, not as secure or reviewed by millions of users and might die too if there is a lack of support and funding.

    Because of that developers switched to OSS otherwise you never see the light. We are not talking btw about small projects developed by one or two hobby developers, more like bigger projects that are used by millions of people.
