No it shouldn't. The article is about businesses who waste time reinventing the wheel and writing their own string handling software. It's from a PoV os company self-interest, not OSS developer interest (which is fine).
Most of the article is about asking companies to donate to OSS because they profit from it.
Thank you. Yes, that's what it's about.
However, it's not so important to get companies to directly donate if the developers who use it push for the donations.
Contrary to Supreme Court rulings, companies aren't decision makers, people are.
