But take that up with those who get on about Wayland/systemd/whatever else people like to complain about here that wasn't the thing they grew up with.

That situation is quite different. X11 and initd weren't replaced due to monetisation issues, they were technical decisions. The people who wanted the change were willing to put in more effort than the people who didn't want the change.

Comment $250 flat fee for 5 years (Score 2) 6

"He says each selected artist received a $250 honorarium to license their music to the New Orleans Public Library for five years -- a far cry from the fractions-of-a-penny per stream paid to independent artists by platforms like Spotify. "
