Cooperate greed a couple times has taken open source projects over by first helping, then offering 'thread exclusive feautres' which no one else cna support - but obviously they can support all open source protocols, giving them a one up. This leads to more users using theirs until it becomes a big layer in the game, and slowly they can factor out all open source/free parts of the software until its essentially another Instagram with full control in their hands
