Sure, I'm being "paid" by the fact that it costs pennies a day to use Deepseek and if I could afford the hardware then I could run it locally. Meanwhile, Anthropic is obviously a threat to open weight models and actively lobbies the US Government to have them banned or controlled.

So yeah, I and I guess others, are quite active in whatever little way we have available, to up vote new models and share stories.
