Sounds like spec work

A new repo "find me the code that..." is an excellent use case

An internet tax could pay for it.

A class action may be one way.

Atlassian is remote first but not digital nomad friendly. If the life reason is travel you can do it but only X days a year.

Computers can do stuff humans struggled with since the abacus. A 386 PC can do mathematical calaculatuons a human couldn't do in a lifetime.

Just takes one purse string puller to see something and maybe their company will put money into helping. There is an incentive for companies to contribute. They dont want their tools to die, they want to do the right thing (and can because of culture or BDFL) or promotional reasons either for their service or for recruitment. In addition yes a bored retired xoogler might need a hobby.
