"But it had shitty URL hijacking redirect ads and I had trouble finding it in search engines! IT'S BEING REPRESSED!"

Goddamn not everything has to become a hypercapitalist merch moment. Don't fall for unofficial unaffiliated "promises" to donate "a portion", just fucking donate directly and save yourself the trouble that the shirt or mug or whatever would give you after the second wash.
Meanwhile I had crackling audio after resume the last like 5 or so times I resumed my steam deck from sleep.
Sorry this meme wasn't relevant to you, I guess?
I don't understand, are you bemoaning that the company in question who owns benchy is ending things amicably?
They changed the license on benchy, which is the thing that they needed to do to end the whole fiasco. I saw plenty of discussion and the internet is really good at inflaming passions. I wouldn't classify what I saw as panic, but I think concern and confusion was rampant.

Go fuck yourself.
I'm done. Thank you again for your time.
It's likely one of those famous internet quotes that Thomas Jefferson warned us about, and also the most consistent source for it is George Bernard Shaw, a name for which I currently have no context.
Friend, I think we agree mostly. I'm not in a mindspace to argue with you on the places where we disagree. Thank you for your passion and your time in presenting your positions, and also consider asking people for clarification on their positions when it would appear that some is needed, as I believe we may have been talking over each other instead of properly communicating.
I'm genuinely glad you were able to employ an amount of critical thinking that it would appear that OP had not done. It's unfortunately incredibly necessary with basically anything you can find on the internet, and equally unfortunately lacking.
