As long as they don't lament your existence when they disagree with you it's a false dichotomy. It's OK to ask for volunteers from the community, that's kinda what makes it a community. It's not OK to shit on your volunteers.
You can do whatever the heck you want. Successful communities are rarely successful at scale without funding. Debian, RHEL, C, Rust, Go, Apache, Nginx, Ruby, JS, etc all have a considerable commercial backing. Nothing tells me anyone had a viable long term plan for ensuring privacy and stability.
