  You can buy companies, organizations and people that run FOSS projects, thus buying the project. Audacity was bought and enshitified. SimpleApps suffered a similar fate on Android.

  In both cases, the community forked the last “good” version and renamed the project

    None of my self hosted apps can be bought. They are not accessible even.

      Happened to a number of FOSS projects. At least forking and “starting” anew is easier
