That's a lot of cash money. I'm still a bit confused at how much of this money will go to the actual engine and how much of it will go to supporting W4 in general, such as allowing devs to publish Godot games for consoles.

      This is exactly how Blender operates. A company that raises capital and provides back to the open source version, in addition to the community contributors. If they will enshittify the OSS version because of this, like Redis has been doing, remains to be seen

      Less conflict of interest and more just some confusion. They've been honest W4 is not the Godot Foundation, but they claim that W4 will contribute back to Godot development regardless so nobody's really sure how they're spending the money exactly.
