  I do believe this was the message that was intended to be conveyed by the post itself

    Some people really need it spelled out, though.

      Like in the title of the post? Or in the image comprising the post?

        Show me where in the post title or anywhere in the rest of the post it says “their motives aren’t money”.

        Maybe I just missed that part?

        Because “spelled out” and “implied“ are not the same thing. But I guess some people just need that spelled out for them.

        ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

      In the image itself, it directly calls it a “profit motive,” not just a general motive. I figured you may have missed that by mistake, wasn’t trying to be rude.

        wasn’t trying to be rude.

        Sure, but why pass up the opportunity for some petty bickering?

        No need to reply

  Hence: without profit motive.

    Are people not profiting off their feel good hormones just like they would getting a shiny new doohickey?

      ???

      1. Feel good hormones are not profit.
      2. Yes I think that firefighters should be paid, some open source developers deserve compensation for the value created by their work, and some Wikipedia contributors should probably be paid as well.
