This is not an isolated problem in the FOSS community

Correct. It isn't a problem at all for FOSS.
Still baffles me how many don't understand that FOSS doesn't follow capitalist market logic.

People make a thing in their free time and give it away for free.
Then other people tell them:
"What you're making is wrong. You should change it. Then more people would be willing to use the thing you're giving away for free."
