Blender, Krita, Wordpress, Drupal, Nextcloud and many other projects are commercial and (A)GPL. As long as you share the sources of your modifications, you are free to use their code.



All of the projects you mentioned except Nextcloud are owned and developed by non-profits.


I'm sure paid developers are not only doing so out of altruism.


And? The point is that they are still able to operate commercially and collect revenue.
