The most rewarding part of my FOSS philosophy is championing a project you believe in: either committing code, writing docs, churning out blog posts and tutorials, donating money, or any combination your free time and wallet can survive.
And the *second* most rewarding part? When that project turns its back on you, you're perfectly free to keep using it, grudgingly, because you might have no other choice, while committing nothing, documenting nothing, writing nothing, never mentioning it again, and not donating a single cent.
Freedom, as promised.
