Thank you for this write up. As someone who has loved actually doing the mod, and using the machine afterword (hardware and espresso novice for the most part), I’ve felt like I am taking crazy pills following along as an open source maintainer in the past. The weaponizing of CC-NC is wild to me, though I think it might be coming a bit from the 3D printing STL sharing community.
It just all makes my heart hurt. It is a great accessible DIY project with amazing results, but just with insane baggage.

It’s been honestly pretty fun to run this at BackerKit. Sad to say it caught my COO, but actually more inspiring seeing my team banding together and fighting back and letting folks know in Slack. Also, a bonus, a really cool lean use of Drift which inspired us to use that tool better.

People putting themselves out there, even if it's not quite there, is still something worth encouraging IMHO.
It's hard to get a single person to care. The Creative Fund now is a group of folks want to see people take the leap and try and put new things into the world.
