@smxi So you don't. You do you. And someone else who accepts money for gnome work shields you from the people inside the capital funnel machinery who want a supply chain.
If you're worried about code pollution from corporate concerns, the gnomes can look at how OpenSSH does it as a model: The upstream is clean and OpenBSD-specific, and then there's a downstream distro that adds abstractions and adaptations to make OpenSSH run on GNU, POSIX and elsewhere.
