I exclusively work on open source projects without pay or for donations. Granted, I don't work that much, but when I do it is not for money.
I wrote code for money before. I loved the work, hated the environment, didn't believe in the product. I would do it again, only if I had to. I'd rather work at a gas station.
My motivation is to use what skills I have to enact changes on the world I'd like to see happen, no matter how small. It's not much, you won't catch me maintaining a logging library or something like that, usually it's little tools for people to use.
