Anyone complaining about libre software's ability to pay them is in the wrong part of the culture. Paying someone for labor is a capitalist thing and completely beside the point.
Human societies are deliberately designed to disincentivize volunteering or doing anything without getting profiting. These cultures promote the idea that people are only worth what's in their bank account.
So why should people start paying money for things when it's the fault of the developers for choosing to give away their time and work?
I write that as someone who has FOSS projects. If you want to be paid, don't write code or deliver support until you get the paycheck.
