@Blender this doesn't make it any better. This company feeds on the visual and engineering creativity of your users and developers. Why would you take money from a company that is by design non-ethical?

The problem is the ORIGIN of the money.
There must be an ethic about who is accepted as a patron.
"This is like accepting money from the nazi party, the mafia, Russia, Donald Trump and Israel, all combined. 🤬🤬🤬"

@Blender I did. Accepting money from a plagiarism-as-a-service company is still overwhelmingly disrespectful to artists. Your policies do not make this okay, Anthropic has no place in any community that even pretends to care about artists and creatives. Whoever approved this should still be fired.

@Blender Given the fact that Antropic and other LLM peddling companies are an existential threat to the human creative industries, programmers, and human life in general.
Accepting money from such a scummy corporation is an out of touch move!
I don't plan on using Blender anymore, ya'll are on my unsafe software list.

@barrionomia @thibaultmol @UkeleleEric @eden @Blender
I just want to adress points 1 & 2 here:
They have just too many sponsors to be dependant on a single one. Even if it's from the highest tier, as in this case. The money basically pays 2 full-time salaries.
@riidom @barrionomia @UkeleleEric @eden @Blender exactly. This isn't a Google mozilla situation

Don't mess up @Blender Foundation. It's not a first time a big company is "offering" money to buy power on FOSS project. We live in a capitalist world, companies are never giving you money just to help, moreover at this level of funding.

@Blender
@Blender pulling a massive L and disappointing everyone wasn't on my 2026-bingo.Fuck Anthropic. And shame on whoever decided against returning this donation from a HIGHLY UNETHICAL entity.
Yes, I understand that this money pays for full-time employees. But I also understand how Anthropic is among the worst offenders when it comes to shitty and unethical practices.
This sour taste will remain irredeemable.
