Terraria devs condemn Unity, pledge $100k each to rival open-source engines and $1k a month going forward.

I hope they are not serious about this moralizing , unity is making 1.8B but losing almost a billion a year, either they cut back on expenses or they somehow increase income, i think they might not want to cut back on expenses because they are feeling the heat of open source game engines like gadot or even gdevelop (and that will lead to a inferior product ). I think the same thing is happening with RISC-V and ARM.
Hopefully there is enough of real financial support for godot and other open source gaming software and not just feel good talk. godot fund almost doubled in funding but that is not close to 1B dollar (but maybe companies are allocating full time developers).
Let's be real here, they've hit market saturation but profits have to keep going up, forever into infinity, no matter how shitty it makes their product or service.
