Get a job then. Open Source is for people who want to have their cake (be their own employer / business owner) and eat it too (not actively compete in the market, just ask people to pay for their work since they are doing a service to the community).

Then they shouldn’t get shocked when it works against them. If you are releasing open source (especially under permissive licenses) you are relinquishing your rights - so do it from a view that its charity to the world, but don’t expect to get all the compliments for doing OSS work but also _expect_ market rates for the work you did. No one agreed to pay you for it, no one agreed to pay you royalties for using your product in theirs and so forth.
